  • Backup your data to the cloud with my latest video: https://youtu.be/clSzGyZEAe4

  • Thanks for the tutorial. Do you have a tutorial for how to restore from that backup file? I followed these instructions and reinstalled my OS. Now I need to restore my programs. Any advice/input would be greatly appreciated 🙂

  • After we have the image backup, how to restore all programs and data?
    Thank you!

  • I get errors when I'm on the back and restore. Any suggestions?

  • hai here. i refreshed my windows 10 but after finishing i found out that in controlpanel>programs.program and features there are nothing left. All my inbuit and other apps that i installed are gone. But i need my inbuit apps back.is ther any method to get them back.

    Also i want to know how to backup inbuilt apps before refreshing the pc(if any external software is required)

    please reply quickly

  • I forgot to say that my "Back Up Now" settings are "Let Windows choose" which said that it makes a system image AND backs up files in libraries, desktop and Windows default folders.   I think that is what is confusing me because when I read that it sounded like the files being backed up was separate from the system image.  So does the system image by itself include the files or not?  Thanks again!

  • If you go to "Backup and Restore" in the control panel and hit "Back Up Now"  will that do the same thing?  In other words, is creating a system image the same thing that happens when you hit "Back Up Now"?   It seems like it isn't because the option for "create a system image" is on the same pop up box that the "Back Up Now" is on.   The reason I am asking is because I usually click "Back Up Now" but for some reason I used the "Create a System Image" instead and I am not sure if I am getting all my files backed up or not the way I do when I click "Back Up Now".   I hope you can clarify this for me cause I don't understand computers all that well.   Thank you!

  • hi, when you regularly backup is the old backup automatically overwritten, thanks
