This section will demonstrate how to export user data from an existing client computer, wipe the computer, install a new operating system, and then restore user data and settings. The scenario will use PC1, a computer that was cloned from a physical device to a VM, as described in [Step by step guide: Deploy Windows 10 in a test lab](windows-10-poc.md).
->**Important**: If the client computer that was cloned to a VM is a Windows 7 PC with a GPT-formatted OS drive, and you used the procedure [prepare a generation 1 VM from a GPT disk](#windows-10-poc?branch=vso-7992313a#prepare-a-generation-1-vm-from-a-gpt-disk) to create a bootable VM, the VM must be recreated before proceeding. We can do this using DISM which is installed on SRV1. To recreate the PC1 VM, see [Migrate GPT to MBR](#migrate-gpt-to-mbr). If PC1 is running Windows 8 or later, or has a GPT-formatted OS drive, you do not need to perform the GPT to MBR migration and can continue with the current procedure.
