Ok so this was not a Clonezilla issue but a Windows issue. Here is how I solved it.
I first installed Windows 10 in VBox, then I booted into VBox with Clonezilla and my image, then I overwrote only the Windows or C Drive, and when I booted back it, I had all my files. Hope this helps. On Wed, Mar 25, 2020 at 10:21 PM Sreyan Chakravarty <sreya...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I have taken the image of my C Drive Partition in Windows.
