2020-09-10T16:54:26+00:00 Hello again JohnD. I researched the Macrium Reflect software you advised.
It seems the free version is very limited on what you can do. It won't let you Backup Files and Folders, which is basically what I'm looking for. Also, it touts a free back up, disk imaging, and cloning solution.
I don't know who would want to back up or clone their system at this point if their computer is not in good shape anymore since the update problems. If a computer is still working properly, it may be a great solution.
This is what I can gather: In essence, I'd be backing up/cloning a bad version of my system. ???? after the update problems. This program seems a bit "over my head." Had I done this months ago, it may have saved me, but at this point I feel it's putting the cart before the horse. If I'm incorrect, please set me straight.
I signed up for a free pCloud account and have been storing important docs there. It's easy to use and they give 10 MB free storage. All they require to sign up is an e-mail account and password. That's it! It's not a solution to storing many photos, but for docs it's wonderful.
As of yesterday, I'm now having problems with internet connection. Seems to fail several times per day. Have to run the great and powerful Oz 'wizard' to fix it. 'I've also had to update graphic drivers several times. What next?
I do rely on my computer for on-line banking and with no connection... scrood. As is, I now have to make an appointment to go to my bank physically due to Covid restrictions. Hmmmm... Maybe windows contracted the covid virus.
Thanks again. I appreciate the knowledge I gain here!!! I wish I were able to help more people myself, but I know just enough about computers to be dangerous.
