❎ More than likely, you will want to keep the new operating system on your new machine. All that you need from your image backup is the data that has luckily been preserved.
❎ Restoring a backup to a new PC
Restoring a backup image to a new/different PC will overwrite everything, including the pre-installed operating system, and may or may not work because of hardware differences between the old and new machine. The better approach is to set up Windows, from scratch, install your applications, from scratch, and then restore your data from your backups or elsewhere.
