W10 hangs on "restart"

<< < (2/2)

Boggin:
That's good to hear - it's surprising how many don't make back ups.

I create images using Macrium Reflect Free where you need to boot up with a Macrium WPE disk - it may be worth looking into creating full images which would negate the need for a clean install and all that goes with it.

While I don't have a lot of personal stuff on my machines, I have docs I want backed up onto an USB Flash drive.

I also create full images.

I use "Partition Saving" by Damien Guibouret (www.partition-saving.com). Great program. Works from floppy for really old machines and USB thumb drive (Hiren's Boot CD -- https://www.hiren.info/pages/bootcd).

One can go back into an image and restore individual files (how I got my personal files back).

However, I had already restored each of the last 3 images -- they were all hosed with the "restart" option.

So I had to re-install W10.

Boggin:
I see - it's advocated to see if an image restores after creating it but I never do.
