You are here:

The following Macs are set to Legacy booting mode when restoring Windows, regardless of version of Windows, since the hardware does not support EFI booting Windows.  To determine the model number of your Mac, go to the Apple menu and select “About this Mac” and click System Report.  Select Hardware in the left hand column and look under Model Identifier for your model of Mac.  

Note that if your model number is NOT listed below, Winclone will set to boot in EFI mode for Windows 8 or later.
