- How to Create a System Image Backup in Windows 10
Looking to create a system image of you're computers operating system in Windows 10? I will show you how to create a system image and make a copy of you're hard drive. Once you have you're system image, it will include you exact copy of windows 10 and any programs or data if you have them install or on the system at the time of creating a system image. You can use you're system image to restore your computer back to a time when you created a image.
Having computer problems? what more info on clone and imaging your hard drive?
www.briteccompu...
A system image is saving your computer the exact way it is at that moment, to an external hard drive. It saves your programs and registry and everything from that moment. I tell family members to get their computers the EXACT perfect way they like to run it with all the programs installed. Then perform a system image backup. If there is a virus or malware or even a computer held for ransom. Just restore back from this image and you will be exactly where you were before the trouble. Sometimes you need a rescue disk to access the image file for recovery. It saves hours of time reloading and configuring Windows and all your programs. Only issue is that you are logged out of everything so you will have to log in to get access to your Facebook or Amazon or whatever.
Aomei can even create boot disk and it helped a lot last time when my system crashed
I returned my PC with aomei backupper, not bad actually.
This helped quit a bit. I had to put a new hard drive in my laptop and I created an install drive for windows 10 and just installed it and tried to recover the image from the settings menu. It was giving me a time lol. I went back and redid it picking the repair computer option and it let me use the backup image to install it. Thanks! Saved me some hassle of installing everything again.
Aomei is really useful in doing these stuff.
My method has been to clone the HDD to another (using Acronis' disc utility). I once tried completing the backup strategy by plugging in the clone, and with some unanticipated reactions, it worked well. I clone it occasionally, and feel I can recover from a HDD failure within minutes (knowing some data had not been backed up).
careful when selecting the option to format and repartition disks... I selected that option and it formatted all the partitions on that disk.. so If you have more than one partition DO NOT select that option.
yea I though he wsa reccckless how he explained that it is a very dangerous option and he wizzed through it with out a cae in the world
yes i saw that too if you had a recovery partition and chose to only backup the C drive partition you would lose that recovery partition during the formatting during the recovery
He said that you can choose to exclude partition. Your own fault for not paying attention
I love the pause when he noticed the Windows 7 Backup and Restore lol
This video is still useful in 2022.
Thanks
It worked for me without the need to burn the rescue media to a CD. Alternatively, use a win-10 system on usb as a boot disk, instead of "install", select "repair my computer" to restore the backup image to your pc. Superb video, Thanks always.
Really thank you so much for taking the time and the trouble of explaining this, you have done a great job as everything was step by step and so clear. CHEERS
the windows 7 bit is not a issue it is using the same system that windows 7 did for backing up because it worked well, like Microsoft says if its not broke, don't spend money and waste bills time fixing it :)

They claimed it was a total update from Windows 7. Leaving a misplaced title behind makes them look unprofessional and untrustworthy.
Thank you this is a very clear tutorial and I backup with aomei nicely.
Dude, your worth a million bucks. T/You for all your video's
I am on board with your great videos! My learning curve has gone up Thant's to you! Stay well!!!
i'm really confused, what's the difference between system image and restore point? aren't they all restoring the system to a certain point?
System image - placing specific softwares and applications on the laptop within the company's guidelines for users to access. Restore point- restoring the system to the previous page or time ..
backup allows you to recover whole partition with all programs and system operating windows with all settings - it is complete restoration of the system.
So... i have a windows 7 backup image then we bought a windows 10 laptop, will it affect the backup????
Ok nevermind turns out that there is an option...
Awesome video! I'm getting my Windows 10 computer in a few days. This will be the first thing I do. Thanks for the video!
What if my PC is already unbootable and have no system restore point?
Hi Brian, Excellent video. If I have any problem with my pc , I always look up your answer. Thanks.
Microsoft has now deprecated System Image Backup's for Win 10 1709 or any future builds past it. You can still create SIB's because some people are still back at 1703 or earlier, and MS doesn't differentiate between those builds when creating the image - only when restoring. Typical MS, crazy but true. So you can create them, but you now can't restore them in 1709. MS posted a bulletin on this recently telling people to now use 3rd party software. Head over to MS's support forum and add your voice to the crowd of those who have been screwed over by this. I just spent two days reinstalling my OS because my backups are no longer any good.
Another excellent video, Brian. Where did your Windows background screen that is above come from?
Superb! I'm just upgrading to Windows 10, is this an actual proper backup of the whole hard drive like Acronis does it? I presume when you recover an image it also recovers the whole hard drive image? If so, is it actually worth using Acronis? Very informative video!👏
Great Video, helped me out a lot, what widgets are you using?
I'm also looking badly for those widgets
@@jesseincn I guess its some kind of Rainmeter skin
So, what is the difference between creating a system repair disk and a system image? Does one of these two options do the work of both? In other words, wouldn't a system image do everything in terms of repairing a PC that has failed to boot due to registry errors or other problems? It seems to me that the system image is the better of the two, whereas the repair disk option would be useful if you had more than one Windows 10 PC.
If I have three Windows 10 PC's, creating three system images for each PC and labeling them would be the way to go.
Any thoughts on this?
Hi Britec... I just want to say i have watched a lot of your videos, and i appreciate all your knowledge you share with everyone. I know myself you have helped me figure out many things to solve some of my computer problems. Was just wondering what you use to record your videos and how you were able to even record the part when you were in the Bios and Windows Installation portion?
I was wondering the same as you
Virtual Machine?
Brilliant video, Brian. It's easy when you know how!! This helped me out a lot.
easy but what if you want to use a usb flash/thumb drive?.
1.whats the difference between 'System backup' & 'create Recovery drive'
2.If i do system back, will it backup only the windows 10 system files or all the files and folders in Documents ?
3.If i take system backup as u explained, will it delete all files already existing in the external hard disk ?
Presented very good. Good video and audio quality. Thanks.
Can I use the system repair disc on other PC as well? Or every PC should have their own repair disc
would i need to clean the usb drive for the image to store in the drive? or i can store other files in that same usb drive?
I don't understand. How can you have your restore image on the repair CD, when you put your image on a harddrive?
Excellent. Thank you. May I ask you where did you get the gadgets on left screen window?
Will this work if I want to restore my image on a different hardrive. I am looking into changing my hard disk to ssd.
@@spacecy I put the backup on my ssd, will that work?
Microsoft has included the old Backup and Restore feature from Windows 7. This was deprecated in Windows 8 and removed in Windows 8.1, but it’s back. It’s also known as “Windows Backup".
This tool will allow you to restore any old Windows 7 backups on your Windows 10 computer. But you can also use it to back up your Windows 10 PC in the exact same way you’d back up a Windows 7 PC. Unlike Microsoft’s new File History backup solution, you can use Windows Backup to more easily create a backup of practically everything on your hard drive.
You’ll find this tool in the Control Panel - just search for “backup” to locate it.
Great easy to follow video! I love the upper right of your desktop! How did you do that?
File History --> System Image Backup.
Create System Image : Back to your external hard drive.
Great Video content on Windows 10 Backup and Recovery...Thanks for sharing your expertise...
No tutorial on the system repair disc?
Fantastic video.
I've searched many videos on youtube but no one mentioned whether this ''file history backup'' keeps the SETTINGS of softwares, apps, games... or not?
for example let's say I have google chrome and I installed some add-ons extensions to it and I adjusted the SETTINGS of each extension to certain preferences, will that ''file history backup'' keep that SETTINGS exactly as it is the moment it captures it when I restore it in the future??
Thank you. This will be very useful and it's something I have to do with the free version of Windows 10 Pro I got after using the testing versions of Windows 10.
Great Video, btw its called backup and recovery because it was introduced in Windows 7 and is being used as is.
Hi Brian , great how to vid as always. I followed your instructions to the letter and at the end it came up with Back up failed,because of this error( 0x80780151)' I googled this and found out that Bitdefender has to be uninstalled as it causes a conflict also used cc cleaner to remove any Applications or files left in registry by bit defender. It was also advised not to have windows explorer opened as this causes an error. I have now disconnected the internet and retrying the back up. Fingers crossed !!!
I benefitted from this tutorial! Saved me self $30 of technician service
What widgets do you have on your desktop?
With all do respect, doing that way is pretty easy !
The fun part is when the error message pops !!
< The drive is not a valid back up location> that is the real deal !!
Sir, thank you very much for your this video...this is very helpful for me. Sir, i have question just few ago i update windows 10 version 1709, now if i make backup image...it will backup old windows 10 version or new one which i updated windows 10 version 1709.
So whats the difference between a 'system image' and a 'recovery drive' ? Thanks
While the recovery drive can only reinstall Windows on the system (or troubleshoot certain issues), a system image would restore the entire system. This would include restoring the user data, apps, and saved settings, apart from the firmware installation.
Please where can i download the gadgets and the wallpaper ??
Good Video! Tnx!
Two questions thou:
1) So You can't put image to extra partition on the same drive cause it will be overformated and ended up in raw partition?
2) If You create image to network location, You cant restore from network when You boot from cd, so You would have to move it from network to external HD before you can restore, right?
Best Regards...
Hi, thanks, but can we update that system image recovery?(because of new updates for win10)
Thank you for the tutorial! Small question. Do we save Windows 10 and all the files, apps, drivers in this way? Or just the version of Windows OS itself as it is at the first installation?
Very good video Brian
+wtbm123 Thanks
+Britec09 I have a little problem here =/
I have two harddrives (if that's what it's called), C: and D:
D: is used for stuff that I download, like games on Steam and C: is for Windows stuff.
The C: disk is the disk that is a backup as I got it (I heard that if I perform a backup, only the C: disk will be kept, not the D: disk).
When I go "Create a system image" I can only pick D: and it says this: "The selected device is on the same physical disk as the backup. The backups will be lost if this drive fails." (I used Google Translate).
I just don't know what to do. Something went downhill with my internet and I've tried everything to fix it, but nothing works, so this is the last thing I can think of and I'm afraid I can't even test this =/
Can I use the backup image to install to a USB drive and then transfer that to an SSD? I want to use a new SSD as my boot drive and use an USB drive to transfer.
Hi Brian, I have a laptop running Win 10 64bit. When follow your video, click START BUTTON, in search bar type "File History" and then click File History Control Panel, all I get is a window showing files folders etc and not the screen you get in your video. My laptop is freshly installed. Many thanks Alan
What are the widgets tht are u using on your desktop? plz reply
Awesome video Brian. BTW which capture card do you use?
+rounak dutta I will post link on my forum
Britec09 I have been wanting a reason to join your forums. thanks.
Thank you very much. Does the IMAGE backup restore all software such as AutoCAD so that I do not have to re-install AutoCAD?
So this works only on restoring to same computer because if you try to restore it to a different computer, the hardware and firmware data doesn't match.
Can you please explain the differences between these three -create a recovery,system image backup and system repair disc. Which of these I want to choose in order install previous genuine OS version into pc when the pc has totally collapsed. Can u plz help me out.
Thanks for the video, Brian! I thought that the image backup feature was only on 7.
+lance ripplinger Its funny how it says windows seven on windows 10 lol
I am working on windows 10 pro and I want to create an image, then, wash the original computer to windows 7 and restore the image. Will this work? Also, the image, it will copy all my files, desktop, pictures, videos, my c drive, all of it? Whatever is on the computer?
Appreciate your help.
Just wanted to say thanks. Microsoft did a really great job of hiding this feature (tiny label in the bottom left hand corner several screens deep)... wow. I read a few technotes but I couldn't find it (Searching File History doesn't work in the later updates) but thanks to your screens I was able to find it.
If your windows was corrupted before the backup, it will restore a corrupted version of windows correct?
Hi thanks for the video. I got question. How did you video capture when you're in the bios & dos screen? Which video capture software did you use? Mind to tell? Thanks.
So say for instance I have items on my desktop and a wallpaper, will it save all of that information so if i were to plug it in to a fresh computer it would put all of that stuff in the right place . I just need to know how precise it is
Which way Can I use to back up the OS and the data????
Because there are two ways( according to what I've seen so far) :
1- Backing up the system image, (which might be what I want >>> backup data &a system).
2- Backing up the data without the OS,( but I have one hard drive that has everything in it, so I don't know).
I want to restore a complete OS & Data drive, not one of them only, which one is the way to go in my case???
Please, help me, anyone :(
What does this backup exactly? Does it backup all the programs, drivers and files?
Good Day... Thank you for the impormation... But I have a question??? How can I back up my system if I seen in my computer is "Preparing Automatic Repair"??? I wish you can answer my question... Thank you again... Have a nice day...
Have tried to do an image backup on new W10 laptop using memory stick (64Gby and also did reformat it again) and Seagate Backup but kept getting Error Messages 'Not NTFS Formatted media' stumped. Also thought of using hard disk and then copying over. But not sure on that one. Any ideas ?
I did backup C and D drive
If my drive broken I can restore my data back to C and D exactly like before?
Hi my friend keep up the good work you doing great i lean a lot from you now i fix my own pc I don’t have to pay any more to get it fixed and now i also fixed many family computers for free to get more experience,i do thank you you are the best have a nice day

I have never done a system recovery before. But curious to know if the external hard drive with the system image should be connected to the system while you boot from the repair disc? or will there be a prompt? Din't notice anything like that from the video.
I am not able to create Windows 10 backup on SD card in laptop slot. I don't have DVD drive or extra space on hdd. Kindly help.
There is not enough free space on the back up storage location to back up the data it says when I tried to create a system image , what does that mean?
do you have some kind of side bar on your desktop?
it is pretty cool what is the program/app name?
hi there,
love your desktop background shown c drive and memory and weather, can you please advise what app or link to download?
thanks a lot
Looks like a 'Rainmeter' skin. Google Rainmeter to install the actual program and then you can find all kinds of skins and themes online
Thank you, very useful video and well explained.
if I create a backup and factory reset my pc, then use my backup, all my programs and files will still be there right?
nope
When I select my hard drive it says can not create because hard drive is not NTSF format. What do I do?
In my friend's Acer Aspire e5-573g 380s, the Windows 10 files and other related system files are approximately of 30 GB (+/- 3 GB), but I don't have a 32GB pendrive (or higher) or in that matter any form of external storage device apart from a couple of 16 GB pendrives !!! Thus I wanna ask can use my 2 separate 16 GB pen drives to backup approx 30 GB of system files (including the Windows 10 backup) or do I specifically need a single pendrive of 32 GB (or higher) ??????
Furthermore please enlighten me can I use DVDs to do the backup (just like as it is done in HP laptops) ????????
Thanks in advance !!!!!!!
From external hard drive, you saved it on DVD. And while booting did it ask you to change DVD after first DVD was executed as all back up data can't fit into a single DVD?
If windows completely crashes does the system image back up everything like files and apps and programs and all that?
after the image and everything is complete do you technically have 2 versions of windows 10? 1 on the computer and one on the usb or at some point will you need a key so you cant just put that image from the usb on every computer you find?
Can i set my pc to boot from an image everytime i start it? Where it wont retain an files that arent in the image?
Backup location is Local Disk E at 2:27 but use the latest system available system image location is F at 6:30?......Isn't it supposed to be E??
so i have one ssd and hdd i want to format the ssd with windows on it and some programs so i will make a partition on the hdd about 200gb and then make the image backup on it and in the option when i chose to format all disk can i only chose ssd and the restore from partision on hdd so the windows and programs will get installed on ssd again or it doesnt work like that
How many times can I use the image to restore ? my pc came with system recovery image on the blue screen.
How large does the usb stick have to be when creating an image?
Can I share an external hard drive between my Mac Pro for time machine and my windows 10 laptop for this?
What do you do if you can't create a systems restore disc? (No disc drive)
can I use it for other PC that have ''Automatic repair'' loop.
but I don't want that files will be deleted
Hello great video, I have a question. I want to image or clone my windows 10 OS to a ssd which has 24 gb leaving the data in my hdd, and my OS and overall settings in my ssd. How can I do that with macrium reflect??
Create a system image backup is possible on 32 gb or 64 gb pendrive
So this will backup data ? also will it also have my applications ? Example if i have office, photoshop.
Every time I try to make a system image my computer freezes halfway through. Any fix?
in my laptop my ssd wont show while I try to make image why?
there is a sign in the lower of the hard disk "the drive selected is on the same physical disk being back up if this disk fails, you will lose your backups" can i still continue the backup image
