Hi! I need some quick help. After cloning a hard drive, is there a way to change all the paths of all apps and shortcuts to the new drive without doing it manually? Stupid question, I know, but it would make my job a hell of a lot easier.

might be possible with a script but I don't think their is a magic button for this

#

can you just give further explaination

#

like for what purpose have you clone the whole drive

#

have you included os in it? is this to clone a whole computer?

you could change the drive letter to match the original drive

#

im asuming that the copy was 1 to 1 and not into a folder
