When I try to create an image block-based, Winclone 9 will tell me that everything is good. Then when I look at the file it shows me a size of 681Kb. My boot camp partition is using almost 500GB of a 1 TB partition. So the only way I can create an image is to not use Block-based, which takes a very long time to create an image of my partition.
Sometimes the finder does not show the correct size. Try control clicking on the image, and select Show Package contents, and then look at the size of the Windows.wim or boot.img.gz.
Nope the boot.img.gz file in that package is 20 bytes in size. There is no file larger than 600 bytes.

That is strange. it saves from 2021-03-27T19:29:59-05:00 to 2021-03-27T22:04:53-05:00 so it is very weird that there is no saved data. I would expect the boot.img.gz to be much larger.
Thanks for your help. I will just give up on using this applications and use something from the windows side to help me back up my data.
