    Would you believe v.7 made the disk with no problems? wacko
    How do I check that the correct files were put on the CD?
    My other machine is also Win 7 Ult SP1. Can I use the same disk on both?
    Should be able to use it for both, to see if it works boot off that cd on your pc and it will load up the reflect ui.

    I had some problems installing the program, so I'm not switching back to the older version. Just glad everything works. I do have a life outside my computers.

    While I have your attention, here's what it was, unrelated to Macrium itself. If necessary, I'll move the problem to another forum:

    This has happened with a few other installations also. I always "install as Administrator." No, the Hidden Admin. doesn't work.

    The install is almost finished, then it says it doesn't have permission to access the StartMenu in ProgramData-etc-etc to make the shortcut. If I cancel at that point, all the installed files roll back. This time I tricked it by making the shortcut myself, but the dialog said it wasn't finished. I turned off the computer and rebooted as a means of closing the dialog box, and it worked.

    That's why I'm not going back to the older Reflect. just glad it works.

    I just had problems with Win 7 Pro and tried a backup I made months ago with Macrium Reflect... it made me wait 30 mins just to stop the backup process at 50%. Honestly, I wouldn't suggest, as for my experience, for system restore, backup data maybe but not system restore (since the shadow copy service doesn't seem to work... even in windows debug/temporary mode). ;(
