Sorry for the late reply CorylusMaxima -- Been out on jobs since early morning.
Never got that message, Macrium has been working fine. Patched the system, then using the installed Version of Macrium, created a new backup, and put it onto another HDD which booted fine. The backup was also done to one of my servers, then a blank drive attached, booted from the old media ( USB drive) pulled the image back over the LAN - No problems.
BTW-- I always image drives, not clone, have had it where you have to muck about fixing non booting after cloning, but imaging very rarely gives troubles. AND you can store MANY images on Drives ( servers for example) where as clones you cant. Example: on one server I have 174 Folders with several images in each, totaling 1.6TB
Regarding partition software -- there's two I use, mainly Minitool Partition, as well as AOMEI Partition
To make bootable Drives ( USB or CD) you need the paid versions. AOMEI Partition pro has giveaways all the time on various giveaway sites.  The installed versions (free) will work fine on the computers they are installed on, I just prefer to use bootable media.

Upgrades = Old bugs replaced with new Bugs.
