I used CloneZilla a lot yesterday to copy disks. It is one way to get around the limitations of the Windows 11 installer.

I am no fan of Microsoft Windows, but most of my customers still prefer or need it for the work they do. I let people know there's the option of Linux, at least.

If you have an installation of Windows 11 where you have already set up a local account and removed the Microsoft account, you can clone the disk to an image or to another disk (computer).

This allows you to have Windows 11 on a computer with hardware "less" than what the Windows 11 installer requires.

So clonezilla and similar tools are quite useful when repairing and refurbishing computers.
