*Simple!* third-party System Restore that actually works?
W7's instability and [unnecessary] complexity are built into it [MS invents new 'chrome' but never sweats the details, does due diligence, makes it usable and stable]. The top of the hood is pretty, but under, it's....! There's an aviation industry joke: "Helicopters are a collection of parts flying in loose formation". Remind you of Windows!?
I've carefully checked and found the alternatives even worse. Linux is probably stabler but is fragmented into dozens of distros, most of which lack any manual at all, and have far less third-party help [so you may have fewer problems but they'll be less fixable]. And Mac is still the same old techno-bling, desktop jewelry: overpriced, with a locked GUI.
So we are stuck with W7, MS's last semi-usable OS. One of its worst aspects is System Restore. For me, this critical feature works perhaps a third of the time. The rest: restore points evaporate, or just fail.
So I'm seeking the easiest to set up and use third-party equivalent, a reliable Go Back.
I say easiest because i think even the easiest won't really be, because easy implies simplicity which implies increased reliability, and because one has to use it so often.
Thanking you in advance,
