It does work. To test it I made a backup then deleted a tiny text file. I booted and selected only C: partition to copy back(I am on W8 with the GPT jazz.) It showed elapsed time of about 2 1/2 minutes. Much better than the 20+ minutes it used to take to restore from a complete backup in v. 4.2. :)
At the rate my body and the rest of the world is falling apart, I don't want to be around in 2072.
I'm still on the fence over whether to stay with V5 pro, upgrade to V6 Free, or shell out the shekels for V6 Pro.

Yesterday I read "most" of the posts in this forum....till my head started spinning! :)
Today I am ready to download MR free. I am using a custom built machine with Windows 7 Professional (I have one lone ancient program that requires XP. I know I'll have to let it go soon!) with a 256 GB SSD C: drive and several USB 3 ports.
Should I download PE 3.1 or would PE 4 work for my machine?
Thank you in advance!

Hi Butlerkid and welcome to Seven Forums.
When you download MR free it downloads the most suitable PE components for your installation. In your case that will probably be 3.1 (200MB download). When you create the rescue disk you have the opportunity to change the PE version. The most recent is PE5. If you chose that you will need to download a further 500+MB. I think you only need PE5 for UEFI and secure boot but it never hurts to have the latest code.
