Backing up Windows 7 easy options
Would appreciate some assistance with the use of Windows 7 Backup. Trying to help friends, and provide them some options. The have no desire to install Windows 10, for now, anyway.
Their use of any computer is mostly eMail and Internet (research, online banking, eBay or Amazon purchases). They do keep some tax files and pictures.
1. For an unprecedented event, would presume they need to create an image of Windows 7, and a way to boot to the image?
2. Would they need to have an account with Administrator privileges to do so?
3. If they install a new program, how could they go about including it in the original image, or, would they need to create a new image?
4. Would the Windows 7 Backup program do the job, or would Macrium be a better choice?
Open to any suggestions, the easier, the better.
Thanks for your help. :)
