https://support.wdc.com/knowledgebase/answer.aspx?ID=10445 indicates the WD edition of Acronis True Image will not be a bootable drive. How might a cloned drive (MBR partition table, not GPT, since original created with Windows 7) imaged with this app be made bootable?

Note: Had I restored onto a new SSD using Acronis True Image Home, but it won't boot; how do I make the system boot from the new SSD? solved the problem according to its original poster, I would think that a reasonable solution. When I read it before posting, I saw it did not, and had multiple contradictory answers, therefore, since there's no canonical answer, don't believe this is a duplicate.

  • Try the solutions listed there (they could work in your case), then report the results. I'd give you the same suggestions: Windows autorepair, `fixmbr`, set partition to active, `diskpart`. Or use an [alternative tool](https://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html). – simlev Sep 16 '18 at 01:13
