Any free 1 click clone programs for system backup?

I have been using the Win 7 backup for a couple of months. Apparently it does a drive image but not a complete clone saving all files , etc. I use to use a program called "drive image" about 15 years ago and then after that I have a "ghost" simple 1 executable file on a floppy that worked great. Both these programs did exact clones of your system. If you had a problem you just swapped the backup to the boot drive then F disced and formated the problem drive. You could then clone to that one and unplug it and always had an absolutely complete clone just in case.

Anyway , more recently , like maybe the last 10 years or less , I used a Mxtor utility to do clones of the system HD. A few times I ran into issues if i used it on non Maxtor drives.

Bottom line , I am looking for a free clone program that does a true clone , not an image that also requires a system restore disc . I want to make an exact , all system files included clone. Anybody know a program for that now?
