Win 7, Win8 and Win 10 are slower. Win 10 and Vista slower than Win7.

Any windows taking 10 minutes is misconfigured.


*I used MS tool to convert the laptop install to a file for a VM and that opens in about 15 sec from an external USB2.0 HDD on Openbox running on Linux Mint

Screenshot is out of date. It has 3 check boxes. Disable Volume Shadow copy and any unneeded services on the donor XP or other compatible Windows. As long as Classic Boot and not UEFI boot is booting your Windows, even on a UEFI machine, the migration will work.
