Stillwater won't restore this disk

Last updated: 25 October 2026

Stillwater refuses two targets:

  • The disk Windows is running from. Restoring that disk is done from the recovery stick, after you boot it.
  • The disk the image file is stored on. Pick a different disk.

It also stops if the image check fails, or if the target does not have room for the image.

What to do

  1. If you are restoring this PC's Windows drive, shut down, boot the recovery stick, and run Restore there.
  2. If the image sits on the disk you picked, choose another disk.
  3. Read the plan before you type ERASE. The plan is the list of what will be replaced.
