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). ;(
