I smile when I see Linux (XFCE based) OS's/software being used to back up Windows.

The name of the Backup is the date in reverse. So no need to put a date in your notes. If you reverse the date it is easier to find the correct file/folder.

I have been using the free version of Macrium to clone and image drives for a few years. It has worked flawlessly including recovery a few times after a corrupted Windows. I only image the C partition and recover that only when Windows is too damaged for repair.

Another helpful video Brian. Worked a charm. I use Syncback free edition to backup files each time I turn off the laptop. I also use OneDrive for cloud storage. This Redo program is much quicker than the built-in Windows system backup option in my experience.

Thanks for another invaluable little tut, Brian. Used it to migrate from 970EVO 500GB to P5+ 2TB via USB HDD.
Apart from Etcher constantly failing to verify the dongle write (Rufus worked fine for me) it was as smooth and quick as you demonstrated.

Keep on making great content - this is how the Britec09 do.

EDIT:
Because the new SSD was 1.5TB larger than the old, the space available after booting up was only the original 500GB size so I used Disk Management to shrink the size of C: by a few MB, then I could extend it all the way to get the full capacity.

Have been using Acronis for years however I like Redo so I will give it a go, looks much quicker than Acronis, thanks Brian

Hello Ben from Australia. I use:
1) Acronis for backup

2) Veritas System Recovery (formerly Symantec Norton Ghost). This is my favourite backup software.

3) Microsoft Robocopy running with commands from a batch file.

4) Windows 10 and Windows 7 Backup as a fall back recommendation for friends that are not backing up their PC.

I'm going to try this but like others below, Macrium Reflect has worked flawlessly for me.

[Christophers-Assorted-Stuff]

I use a Startech disk copier. My boot drive is a removeable 1Tb SSD. I put it in the copier and copy onto an identical disk drive. I can also copy onto a larger drive and then use EasUS partition master to make full use of the extra space on the larger drive. This is the easiest ever way of doing a backup but it's not the quickest.

Great video. I have not used this in quite some time. Good to know it has been updated and made so simple.

[barkingbandicoot]

Some questions:
1. If I install a new SSD do I need to format the drive (in my case EXT4) before I restore or will it restore it for me?
2. If the new drive I am restoring to is larger will I need to resize? You mentioned gparted but at which stage and how do you use this?
Thanks

Macrium Reflect has always been my go to backup software. I can't tell you how many times it has pulled me out of the fire...

[jeffs]

Thank you been wanting to do this to my son’s PC.

[kevvyg]

I do love this program its great for what I need, I keep coming back to this video as a refresher :)

[JohnClemence]

Really useful - pretty easy to follow and Have my test machine backing up right now.

[pozzo]

Just started using Macrimum reflect. Funnily enough, after my third scheduled backup, when booting next day my pc couldn't find the boot drive! Although it was detected in the BIOS. Used the Fix boot problems option, and it booted into windows instantaneously. Idk what (macrimum itself?) broke it (brand new ssd), but MR fixed it.

[Practical-IT]

I've used Redo Rescue and Rescuezilla. I happen to like Rescuezilla a little better because it uses the same backup format as Clonezilla and it can actually open and restore Clonezilla backup files. I'm cautious about Redo Rescue only because it was dormant for so long.

[LAkili]

Brian, I don't know is it your voice or the mic, but you always sound very good. Please tell me what mic do you use?

[headgreengnome]

Thanks mate!... for a good Back Up option for this old fart! Will follow the pathway you're showing here! Mind you having to stand on my head down here in Australia to watch your You Tube channel is a bit difficult for this 73 year old... on my 11 year old PC!!!
