EaseUS RecExperts for a black screen? Hardware acceleration didn't work

I'm trying to record a video on my Windows PC, but all I get is a black screen in the recording.

I already tried disabling hardware acceleration, which seems to be one of the common fixes, but it didn't help in my case.

I saw easeus screen recorder mentioned as another option. Has anyone actually tried it for this kind of problem? Any other alternatives worth looking at?

Can I clone Windows from an MBR SSD to a GPT SSD?

I'm replacing my old SSD with a bigger one and just realized the old drive is MBR while the new one is GPT.

Can I just clone the old SSD to the new one and boot Windows from it?

I keep seeing stuff about UEFI, Legacy BIOS, MBR and GPT, and now I'm not sure if I'm making this more complicated than it needs to be.

Do I need to convert the old SSD to GPT before cloning, or can I clone it as-is and deal with the boot settings afterward?

Really don't want to reinstall Windows just because I'm changing the SSD.

Cheap Cloud Storage: Which Has the Best Value for Money?

I am looking for a cloud storage service that doesn't cost a fortune.

I don't need a ton of fancy features. Most of what I store is photos, videos, and backups, so I'm mainly looking for something that's affordable, reliable, and easy to use.

I've looked at a few options like Google Drive, OneDrive, iCloud, Dropbox, pCloud, and Backblaze, but it's hard to tell which one actually offers the best value over the long run.

If you were starting from scratch today, which service would you choose? Are there any hidden downsides or pricing changes you've run into? Interested in what you've stuck with and why.

How do I clone a big drive to a smaller SSD?

I'm upgrading an older PC and ran into something I've never done before.

My current drive is 2TB (with Win10 installed), but it's only using around 600-700GB. I bought a new 1TB SSD and was hoping I could just clone everything over, since the actual data should fit.

The thing that's confusing me is that some guides say it's fine as long as the used space is smaller than the target drive, while others make it sound like a bigger headache because of partitions and boot files. Has anyone here done this before?

Did you have to resize partitions first, or did your cloning software handle it automatically? Any issues getting Windows to boot afterward?

Just trying to avoid turning a simple SSD upgrade into an all-day project.

Would appreciate hearing what worked for you.
