If i am afraid to do a simple update install i surly will not not attempt to do this. So now every update has to be done that way .i can ot just install an update i have to do this everytime so now if i should decide to do the 20h 2 update i need to do this as well? than i guess ill have to not update anymore i have no way to back up any thing. No external hrd drive no flash drive and one drive is over capacity . That is aodd and crazy way to get updates. thanks unless i have atech do this a and find me a way to save everything than nope ill just live with this . But i do appreciate your time and effort and all your help. I would not even know how to do the repair up grade even if i wanted to. Guess ill go back to my windows 7 then and forget about any windows 10 updates. if this has to be done for every update. I f i want to do this Ill have a tech do it that can back up my data and apps and files. You have been great and went out of your way to help me but i am not going to attempt this .especially after I just had a reinistall less than month ago. trying to do the update of 20H2
Mary,
This is not a total reinstall, it is a Repair Upgrade to keeps the files, apps and settings in place and is the most stable method to change to the latest version. It avoids problems that WIndows Update can cause, takes about an hour, solves most problems like not getting Updates.
oh well then if i have to reinstall the operating system just for an update then Ill keep it as it is i just had the entire thing reinstalled in early december. I can not just get an y update i can not just install the 20h2 as just an update either i have to doa reinstall for that too . that is a crazy way to get updates. Thanks
but i will not attempt to do areinstall myself i was unaware that any of these feture updates were total reinstalls
It is a reinstall but it saves your files, apps and most settings in place.
But Your files should always be backed up because a hard drive can die at any time without notice. Some suggestions to help ease into this habit:
I hope this helps.
