I have a contact that's asking for the best download site for Macrium Reflect Free version. I can't recall which site I used last year for my PC's. The contact wants to avoid the potential for a "PUP" download site.
Is there a preferred site from users here for the download?
I see a few of the sites from a search:
Macrium Reflect FREE Edition - Information and download (Cnet host download?)
Download Macrium Reflect 5.3.7149 - FileHippo.com
Download Macrium Reflect FREE Edition - MajorGeeks
Macrium Reflect Free Edition Free Download
Macrium Reflect (Free Edition) 5.3.7100 Trusted Free download - tested and reviewed software downloads from SnapFiles
Thanks. FileHippo jogged my memory, I think that's where I downloaded it last year.
I use MBAM to scan downloads. it usually does a good job detecting PUP's. My contact doesn't yet have that installed on his PC (planned). I think I've heard about "Unchecky" somewhere, thanks for the link. I think that's a good idea for the contact without MBAM at present.

Thanks so much for all your information with Macrium.
Following you I created CD and Hard Disk as below.
My computer data is as below.
I would like to check how my Macrium work is working, so disconnected my regular C: and connect Macrium hard disc.
What I get:
F8 = CD = Windows Loading = Microsoft Corporation.
Get Macrium Reflect
Browse for Image File
Select Computer = Image ID (C:) = Image ID = 1AA2AD280D9A39E5-00-00 = Open
Macrium Reflect = Image Restore
First = MBR Disk not here
Second = 1AA2AD280D9A39E5-00-00 = C:\Image ID\ = Full
All Drives change for C: (Images that contain drive)
Restore Image
Select disk = Image ID (C:) =Next\
Get: Not all partitions copied. Insufficient space.
I did number of openings in this Macrium but do not know how to open my Windows 7?.
Will appreciate your help.
Regards

Rather than going thru this I suggest you create a small 1 or 2GB partition, copy some random data into it and image and restore that partition. That will go very fast and will bear no risks.
Thanks so much. Can you tell me please what it is Random Data? Is it like : Programs, Users, Windows...? How to image this data?
Regards
For 'random data' I usually use a couple of picture folders. But you can also use documents or music or whatever. Just anything that's data.
