Transferring data from eMMC C: Drive to a Seagate Backup USB Drive - the computer won't boot without a Windows 10 USB stick

I'm trying to recover data from an unbootable laptop with a eMMC drive. I can now see the drive and wish to copy it to my Seagate Backup Drive, but I have no mouse.

the Ctl + C & Ctrl + V from C: to Seagate do not operate. Also when I opened up te C: Drive it did not list all files :

How do I copy the C: Drive onto my Seagate Backup USB Drive?

And then how do I see the files that must be there but are not listed?

If you can answer in part I would be grateful.

    I've got similar.  I cannot see where my eMMC Drive is to copy it.  You appear to have a longer list.

    Do I click on Disk Cloning?  Will that do it, and if so can you give me instructions please, or if not tell me what else to do?

    Hi,

    The default setting for parted magic is to run from memory... The second option is to run from the flash drive, which is a lot slower...

    Either way it does not overwrite anything...

    The camera had a bad battery connection... It is working again, but I don't know for how long... I should be able to find a work around for it should the problem happen again...

    Or get a new camera... I've been thinking about doing that anyway..

    Thank you for all of that and for going to so much trouble too, I will allow it to run, got scared when it just went off automatically and shut the computer down thinking it was about to over write everything.  I'm thinking of you and your camera now hoping it's not serious and can be easily solved.  What has happened to it?

    Hi,

    At the screen you provided, just hit enter... or just wait a few seconds, and Parted magic will start loading...

    You will eventually see a "Desktop" that looks like this...

    You can select any time zone, or just use it like it is...

    On the upper left corner of the screen you will see "File Manager"... Double click it just like you would in Windows... Parted magic works a lot like windows...

    File manager will look something like this... But these are my drives... just for reference...

    Select what you want to copy to another external drive, and use Copy and Paste just like windows... The menus look different, but works the same...

    I would have posted a couple more pictures, but my camera just died... Another project to work on today...

    Any problems, feel free to ask...

    I've done that, and now Parted Magic shows up on my computer, which option should I choose (please give me a list of the next options too) so I can safely discover and save my data?
