System restore is not working
Posted: Wed Jul 19, 2023 1:31 pm
I used to use the Microsoft's "Backup and Restore (Windows 7)" until I found out that is useless unless you use it on a drive that it has an already healthy Windows installation.
So I am looking at an alternative.
A website recommended the R-Drive Image, but it's not working.
First of all you don't have a "Create system image" on the menu.
I don't even know if your program can create that but if it can it would be good to put it out there.
So assuming that it can I tried to do it manually by creating a backup of the Windows partition, the UEFI system partition and the Windows Recovery partition, since I don't want to backup the whole drive, which was done successfully.
But then I restored those partitions on another drive, and it did not boot.
So am I doing something wrong or should I look for another program?
