Hello there ; As you know, the Windows 10 20H2 update has arrived, but with this update, the driver update is not automatic after the computer is formatted, unfortunately we do it manually in the other updates section, which means some drivers or old computers fail. Can we do this as an automatic driver update after getting on the internet after formatting as before?
Thanks for another invaluable little tut, Brian. Used it to migrate from 970EVO 500GB to P5+ 2TB via USB HDD. Apart from Etcher constantly failing to verify the dongle write (Rufus worked fine for me) it was as smooth and quick as you demonstrated. Keep on making great content - this is how the Britec09 do. EDIT: Because the new SSD was 1.5TB larger than the old, the space available after booting up was only the original 500GB size so I used Disk Management to shrink the size of C: by a few MB, then I could extend it all the way to get the full capacity.
I have been using the free version of Macrium to clone and image drives for a few years. It has worked flawlessly including recovery a few times after a corrupted Windows. I only image the C partition and recover that only when Windows is too damaged for repair.
Another helpful video Brian. Worked a charm. I use Syncback free edition to backup files each time I turn off the laptop. I also use OneDrive for cloud storage. This Redo program is much quicker than the built-in Windows system backup option in my experience.
Hello Ben from Australia. I use: 1) Acronis for backup 2) Veritas System Recovery (formerly Symantec Norton Ghost). This is my favourite backup software. 3) Microsoft Robocopy running with commands from a batch file. 4) Windows 10 and Windows 7 Backup as a fall back recommendation for friends that are not backing up their PC.
The name of the Backup is the date in reverse. So no need to put a date in your notes. If you reverse the date it is easier to find the correct file/folder.
I've used Redo Rescue and Rescuezilla. I happen to like Rescuezilla a little better because it uses the same backup format as Clonezilla and it can actually open and restore Clonezilla backup files. I'm cautious about Redo Rescue only because it was dormant for so long.
Just started using Macrimum reflect. Funnily enough, after my third scheduled backup, when booting next day my pc couldn't find the boot drive! Although it was detected in the BIOS. Used the Fix boot problems option, and it booted into windows instantaneously. Idk what (macrimum itself?) broke it (brand new ssd), but MR fixed it.
I use a Startech disk copier. My boot drive is a removeable 1Tb SSD. I put it in the copier and copy onto an identical disk drive. I can also copy onto a larger drive and then use EasUS partition master to make full use of the extra space on the larger drive. This is the easiest ever way of doing a backup but it's not the quickest.
Some questions: 1. If I install a new SSD do I need to format the drive (in my case EXT4) before I restore or will it restore it for me? 2. If the new drive I am restoring to is larger will I need to resize? You mentioned gparted but at which stage and how do you use this? Thanks
Thanks for your awesome videos :) I have a question, can I use this instead of (Macrium Reflect) if I want to backup system image then restore it to a different machine? Thanks a lot :)
Thanks mate!... for a good Back Up option for this old fart! Will follow the pathway you're showing here! Mind you having to stand on my head down here in Australia to watch your You Tube channel is a bit difficult for this 73 year old... on my 11 year old PC!!!
dism++ is far superior imho, mainly because you can backup a live windows installation into a .wim file via VSS. Also, it installs another boot partition to boot right into the dism++ GUI for restoring backups, finetune wim files, add, delete, modify things to your liking, it has a boot-repair option which works very reliable... a file explorer is also integrated, it is very barebone (the explorer i mean), but it does the job. you could start the win10 recovery environment with it or just an admin cmd. from there you can use tools native to windows like wpeinit and wpeutil (for creating a temporary pagefile and also change the keyboard locale or /initializenetwork, if you need internet connectivity). you can go even deeper and create OOBE commands, delete bloatware apps/features and delete/compact the installation file PLUS, it ONLY uses Windows native tools like dism, and CBS... give it a try. especially if you have multiple windows installations or wim/esd files.
Looks like it's Linux based. I'm always a bit weary of free backup programs as they generally use proprietary file backups and you can't restore anything unless you use that program. So if that company stops the free version, you might be screwed if there's a catastrophe and need to restore. Personally I like Free File Sync. It's free and backs up your files as you see them on your drive. Yes it might not be as disk efficient as zipping them up, but you're guaranteed to be able to restore them if something does happen.
Thank you for the video. I do not see any bare metal option upon restore. Is it done automatically ? usually there's a "universal restore" or such function to select restoring an image that was created in other backup software solutions, Like Acronis or Easeus todo workstation
Im currentlt using minitool shadowmaker. you can create images inside windows. to restire the system you have to create a usb. the free version has some limitations.

Hi Bri, i made a usb drive backup about 4 years ago when i bought a new laptop using aomi, is this still good or should i redo making an updated version if it matters?
Love watching your video Brian, I wanted to try out redo rescue, but it keeps asking me for Login and password. I have no idea what it would be, it never aksed me to enter it to start with. Keep the video going. much appreciated
Login is: root Password is: redo , but from there what do you type to get the gui? I've been using redo for years and just found out of this newer version. Anyone know the command to get launch the gui?
I paid for Acronis and found it a pain. Did different things each time with the same settings, and I found it impossible to retrieve a file or folder in isolation - it is replace everything or nothing. With the tiny cost of storage now I just drag my data HD into a USB stick and let it do its thing.
The video was great and I wanted to back up in case of HDD failure or worse. Unfortunately each time I try to flash the usb it fails. I have tried two different usbs and different ports att times windows pops up and says it needs to format
what is the difference between this kind of backup and disk cloning and if i use this way is it going to be helpfel if i want to use it in place of installing new windows??
BRITEC09: I wonder if you can help me. I have iPod which is some years old now, but am able to happily load and unload music and audiobooks from my itunes library; however, for some reason, even though I've updated iTunes, it won't recognise my iPod.

Hi Brian. I respectfully submit that Etcher is rather unreliable compared to Rufus. I was on a Linux board recently and at least 50% of users reported failures. I want Etcher to work (because it's kinda Mac like) but to me it is still junkware.

Hello, if i taken a backup from System only without other partition that includes data , how I can restore the system only ? I can't see in restore option to select partition?
Its a piece of crap, you only have 3% success rate on using that trash. Mostly if you restore, it will give you error and will never ever let you restore your system image backup.
Lovely description of the redo software but way too light on what you are backing up. My concern is my data, not the OS or Applications programs which I can replace. This SW looks to have lots and lots of 'features' that - to my simple mind - complicate the decision process.. I have files on my laptop that I do not want to lose access to. I need to identify the folders they are in and back them up as, if and when they are changed. I need to be able to restore these files to the drive they were backed up from, or quite possibly to a hard drive on a different device should the source have gone south. This simplistic explanation of how one can back up 'some files' to another drive and restore those files to the original source device is just that simple - as about as useful. As the saying goes "tell us something we don't know." Then again, could it be that your knowledge is relatively superficial?
I use Macrium reflect,, i even paid for the pro version to back up files, but I thought i would try this redo rescue, but I can not get it to work, I even tried burning to a DVD disk, a sd cards a couple of different flash drives, but all i get after i select redo from the fisrt screen is login and password. i know that the software runs on a linux live disk, even tried root, but no go.

Can I install 'Redo Rescue' on a PC and clone an HDD (from a different PC) to an SSD by: 1) attaching this HDD with a SATA/USB cable 2) having the SSD (ie, the destination disk) attached to the PC via a 2nd SATA/USB cable Note: I do NOT want to clone the PC where I installed 'Redo Rescue'.
No that program does not work like that it will backup everything. all you need to do is backup the entire hdd and restore the backup in the ssd with windows already installed
@@PureBlood42 Ohhh ok..

I have very little Data although I have collected a lot of Bookmarks and Chrome settings, auto logins etc? To mention even Registry settings etc that have been either corrupted somehow or tinkered with? Thanks for any ideas.
Chrome settings depend on Chrome, so if you are logged in Chrome when you install new Windows everything will be back in Chrome when you install it and log back in.Also,I believe Windows itself has this feature to reset and you can choose data to keep.Didn't try tho so maybe someone who did can say more
i Don't Have Acronis.tibx 2021 Yet But i do have 2019 and 2020 and i see "NO" Bloatware on it and I've use it For Years...a Good 10yrs with hardly any issues other than Bug Fixes and New Features...The Only Thing i Have issue with is the Dashboard/Console The Backup Timing is Off; Where I've Backed-up 100% the Online DashBoard says 97 or 98 just not 100% immediately For Where I'm at .
I did this as an experiment, it all worked fine but Windows 10 recognised it was on different hardware, so the 'Not Activated' message appeared. As I say, still worked fine.
Does this work for backing up data usb sticks? I have a 256gig USB stick I need to make a copy of to install to another usb stick. Would this program be a solution to this? No Autoboot required.
Is there a commercial reason why you every time propose Etcher in your recording? Etcher is full of shit, that’s why it is so big. There are free and lighter and safer programs that can do the same!

I did this as an experiment, it all worked fine but Windows 10 recognised it was on different hardware, so the 'Not Activated' message appeared. As I say, still worked fine.
@@dg1294 thank you
The SSH and FTP Server don't work
550 MB for a backup program is HUGE. No thanks.
Redo does not list my 250Gb SSD
Does this work for backing up data usb sticks?
I have a 256gig USB stick I need to make a copy of to install to another usb stick. Would this program be a solution to this? No Autoboot required.
Yes you can backup any drive
@@Britec09 Thanks

Is there a commercial reason why you every time propose Etcher in your recording? Etcher is full of shit, that’s why it is so big. There are free and lighter and safer programs that can do the same!
Hello there ; As you know, the Windows 10 20H2 update has arrived, but with this update, the driver update is not automatic after the computer is formatted, unfortunately we do it manually in the other updates section, which means some drivers or old computers fail. Can we do this as an automatic driver update after getting on the internet after formatting as before? Thanxs
Thank you very much 🙏
You're most welcome
