    Backup and Reinstall

    I would like to know how to make a backup of my entire computer. Also, I would like to download a brand-new install of Windows 10 64-bit. My version was previously one downloaded by an employee of Office Depot. Unfortunately, I don’t have a copy—this could be a problem if my computer crashes, as I’ll have nothing to show for it. Please advise.

    Go to to download and install Macrium Reflect Free. Once installed, open Macrium, and, assuming that Windows, your apps and all your personal files are on a single drive, choose “Create an image of the partition(s) required to backup and restore Windows,” then follow the prompts to create a recurring backup to your hard drive. Choose the “Differential Backup Set” template for a sensible backup regime, involving daily “differential” backups to keep the backup size down. Choose “Other Tasks > Create Rescue Media” to create emergency bootable media on CD
