I am using web clients not desktop apps.
Each one of them has it's own purpose.

Add an Image System BackUp solution.

Add an Image System BackUp solution.

What's the benefit of it?
Since all sensitive data is protected by OneDrive in case of any failure it will take not longer than 1 hour to set up a fresh system with all drivers etc.

While I agree, an image restore would be much faster.

It is always good to have a system backup.
For example, I installed F Secure a few days ago to test it, it made me give up Hitmain pro, ZAM and Shadows Defender. and to top it off I didn't work WFC.
And then restore with Macrium Reflect, and in 15 minutes it's the same as before installing F Secure.

It depends on what you have, in my case it doesn't take long.

Data Backups increase security drastically. System Image Backups doesn't. But it saves time and nerves. Why wasting hours of reinstalling and reconfiguring when all can be restored in the matter of minutes if something ever goes wrong...

How much time take whole system backup in Macrium?

For my 40gb system, 5 minutes for a backup and around 7 minutes to restore .

Since all sensitive data is protected by OneDrive in case of any failure it will take not longer than 1 hour to set up a fresh system with all drivers etc.

And if you do a backup right after you finished a clean install, installed your drivers and only the essential programs, restoring the backup would save you lot of time (10mn max) while ensuring a safe environment.
You know I heavily promote clean installs over upgrades, so I fully understand and agree with your position, but restoring a clean installed system image backup is way more productive .

Thanks for your input guys.

 

[KonradPL]

Thanks a lot Umbra

I see it`s very fast process, maybe I have to try it next time

And i was mentioning a full system backup/restore, for incrementals (in paid version only), it takes less than a minute.
Macrium managed to make me ditch Rollback RX, not an easy feat

Nice, simple setup. You might consider using a Standard User Account.

I have 4 browsers. I guess I've become a browser junkie!

windows 10 and windows 7, windows 8

04/03/2020: changed Bitwarden to 1Password

Why?

 

[enaph]

Why?

Simply because I wanted to try 1Password and I have 1 year free family account.
