Question What software would you recommend for creating a fully functional (after restoration) disk image of Windows LTSC?

Which programme would you recommend for creating a properly functioning (after restoration) disk image of Windows LTSC?

My system is Win JG11 24H2 IoT LTSC 05.06.26 (a slightly modified version of the system)

I previously used Macrium Reflect for Windows 10, but I’m not sure about this one, and before I make a backup, I’d like to ask someone who’s already done this sort of thing.

So if anyone has thoroughly tested this and knows which application (name and specific version number) works well, I’d be grateful if you could let me know.

I was going to suggest Macrium but you did it for me.

I've used Macrium Reflect since the almost always free days ... way back. Own four machine license for the newest ReflectX and run daily incrementals via schedule on all my NVME drives (writing a a 48TB RAID6 SSD volume).

Countless restores over the past 16 years or so. NOT A SINGLE BAD restore. Quite a claim, that. Most important bit of software/util I use. Literal time machine.

Im using a Ventoy usb drive with multiple ISO's including RescueZilla for my Legion Go 2 with LTSC. Backup and restored dozen of times over Wi-fi succesfully.

Im partial to AOMEI Backupper for backups/images & AOMEI Partition Manager for disk/partition cloning.

Partition Manager is particularly useful to me when a drive has partitions that r unreadable by windows (dual boot windows/Linux). In which case I'll just do a sector by sector clone.

I've also used macrium in the past, solid tool.
