Updated with browser, I don't really have any important document/photos to backup. I also just reinstall windows every couple of months, meaning wipe the drives reformat, then install. I'd use a password manager, never forget mine and use different ones for everything, multiple chars long with different symbols.Please specify the browser used with uBlock Origin.
In Photos and Files Backup , consider bakcup to external devices and/or cloud services.
In Backup and RollBack, You may add a full Image System BackUp solution: Macrium Reflect Free or AOEMI Backupper, both are free and reliable.
A PassWord Manager would be welcome also.
Please kindly reflect Your changes editing Your config, and announcing them here, thanks for sharing![]()
I mean you're right, I could do a clean installation of windows 10 pro, then back it up. Instead of wiping my drives, downloading various drivers, steam, etc.How long does it take to reformat your drive every couple of months? After your format, you could make an image with Macrium in 8-10 minutes and restore that image in the same time instead of formating again!
Yeah looks like i'm going to do that, going to add it next time I do a clean installation.You can do a clean installation of W10, then make a backup with Macrium. After a couple of months, you can restore this backup, update Windows and your basic stuff and make a new image. I keep five images. In my experience, Windows becomes easily corrupted when you install and uninstall many security apps. So in my images, only Windows Defender exists. It's a lot easier when it's time to upgrade Windows.Nowadays, I use F-Secure Safe on my PC. It takes only a few minutes to install it after I made a new image. My C uses a SSD drive and most of my data is on a second drive. So making an image and restoring one are really fast...sometimes only 7 minutes for each process..
Let me give you an example: on 2020/11/03 I restored an image that I had made two weeks earlier 2020/10/20. Updated my system: Chrome, Google Backup, RogueKiller,Edge, OneDrive, Q-Dir, Sumo, Hibit Uninstaller, Acrobat Reader, Windows Update. Then I made a new image 2020/11/03. After this image was done, I installed F-Secure Safe.
