    I guess the Standard Windows 10 Backup Is not enough within Windows 10 Is that a correct statement ? Mike

    Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows is a great choice and it's free.

    Edit: Sorry for the double (almost) post.

    Did you do the one time purchase or Use the Acronis 1 year Advanced or Premium Subscription Plan which sounds like a Cloud Backup plan Mike

    I did the 1 time purchase a while back.  I think I bought a 3 computer bundle so I can do my laptop and wife's computer as well.  I back up tp a 5 TB external hard drive.  I have thought about switching to cloud backup but haven't made the jump.  I fire in my office/shack would be catastrophic as I have no off site backup.

    If your issue is around restoring after updates, I'd encourage you to look into "restore points" within windows. I second the recommendation to use Microsoft backup. I'd tell you to get a drive 2x the size of your primary drive and have windows backup use it exclusively.

    Hi Guys.  I have not had much luck correcting my DAX/Upgrade issues using Windows Restore.  While we are on the subject, I have had 1 or 2 BSODs when starting SSDR which has resulted in corrupted DAX and CAT drivers.  Only a full Windows restore has helped.  The problem may be caused by the fact that I start SSDR witth a script file which loads a bunch of related programs (Slicemaster, FRStacks, etc.)
