Solved When backing up system images, how to go back to particular ones?

[Salgado3d]

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Since I've done a reinstall of windows, created a partition of my C: to keep that smaller with only system & program files I wanted to start a biweekly regular imaging process. [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]I've created a task scheduled for this and it seems to work. [/FONT]


[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]I started backing up the images to an external hard drive & I change the name of "WindowsImageBackup" so that i have a few different versions for example. "WindowsImageBackup Original”[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]I was told that this isn't a good idea at all, and that I can go back at any time to any of the created images, I'm guessing thats true ? [/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]My question is, [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]So let's say I want to go back to the original image i backed up when i first installed windows and its programs, how does one go back ?[/FONT]

Secondly, if I've fixed issues I've had with memory paging, drivers etc. one month later and at some point I want to go back to that particular image, how should I know which one it was if they are all called the same? Should I write myself a note of the date that I made it so that I can keep track or? Sorry if this all may seem obvious but I'm confused about it. Thanks [/FONT]

There's nothing wrong with saving multiple images, renaming them to know which is which, you just have to rename them back.

It's explained here in the yellow tip box,
