7:17 - If you have a Windows 10 PC, Windows 11 PC and maybe a Windows 10 PC with a different ISO, you don't need three different sticks. If you save as an ISO, you can put on a USB stick with VenToy, and that'll allow you to boot any ISO you want. Very powerful, and Ventoy is free. Not sure if you've done a video on this in the past... 9:59 - Same here too .. shove those ISOs on one stick - you don't need a stick for each ISO.

Having a bunch of tools in the USB drives with proper labels is going to be operationally far more flexible and cheaper in the long run. But what amazes me is that even though Linux can bring 15 years old hardware back to life and has tons of distros, desktop environments and package managers to choose from, it is remarkably stable and seldom runs into problems. Even if it does, thanks to its free and open-source nature, locating the source of problem and working on solution is very easy

I like how the 2nd tech company's rep acknowledged, yep, it's $100 for the service. Serious question: In my computer system admin days on the OpenVMS systems, making a copy of a disk was called an "image backup" and yes, it copied every single bit to the new disk (and wiped out whatever was on the target). So, am I correct in understanding that calling the process 'cloning a disk' is the same thing? Yes, I understand that the word means that, but I am just double-checking that the computer business is using the word to mean the same thing. Thanks for the good advice.

Something to note for windows users, is that if you are going to go the Rufus route for installing to your USB, you would be perhaps wise to use the NTFS format instead of Fat. The reason having to do with some of how Windows handles things with UEFI if I remember correctly. Both will work, but technically GPT + NTFS is technically the better route to install Windows fresh. I am not sure if the media helper does this as well. I usually just use Rufus.

This video has me confused. Years ago upon first starting up a computer that I bought with Windows 10 operating system immediately went into the control panel and selected "Back Up or Restore your files". From there created a system image. I'm into a lot of multi operating systems on one computer and accidentally erased the Windows 10 partition several months later. The back up image did work with all the programs that were installed and files created. This did have one restriction, the back up images that were saved to a thumb drive with a fat32 format did not work. Another external drive was used to save a copy on a fat32 formatted partition also did not work. The back up image that I saved to a different internal SATA hard drive that was formatted NTFS did work. Why would you get into the 3 USB things if a back up image created using the Windows operating system as a feature is a lot less complicated and worked several years ago? Has a Windows update made this feature unusable that worked for me several years ago? Since then I have also created several more system images that have grown in memory size since additional files and programs were added, I hope these will work if needed someday.

Just keep you a free clean version of Windows on many flash drives in your desk. Easy. Even if you need to swap your Boot device you can with command prompt, and diskpart command. Now you have to know what drive number of the Boot drive of choice. Typically drive 0 is your Sata drive, and drive 1 is your NVMe SSD drive, this drive 1 is my Boot drive. The M.2 NVMe SSD is located on your motherboard and does not bottleneck from pesky Sata cables. I also have a SSD as a Sata drive or D drive, and my NVMe is my C drive. This will tremendously reduce load times, and increase performance efficiency.

An excellent video. My comment is that some of those procedures delete everything on the USB drive while some don’t.

I have a 256 GB flash drive with YUMI and i can install all kinds of .iso files on it, though having separate dedicated flash drives for certain things does have advantages for some things and there's a few things that /only/ let you directly flash a drive and don't have actual .iso files. I can get a 10 pack of 32 GB sticks for around $34 when I last checked from microcenter. They're probably not the fastest drives in the world, so writing the .iso to them will probably take some time, but after that you don't really need to write anything else to them for a while unless maybe the installer updates and you want to keep the latest installer on it.

Everything was working great until last year I upgraded my various Linux machines and Windows machine. Linux I think now using samba version 4.15 and upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 so whatever happened there means I can't access my NAS neither. I can login to the NAS via the web interface but there is no file manager nor means to get the stuff off my NAS and FreeNAS is now TrueNAS and now Linux based vs FreeBSD and so many changes. I absolutely wish software would remain backwards compatible. Do you perhaps have an easy solution to get the New OS's to see and make use of the old FreeNAS Samba. Going out to buy some large capacity drives and install a previous version of Ubuntu 18.04 just to backup my NAS and do a complete re-install is not going to be a cheap option especially with our current economy and load shedding which means power black outs for hours at a time.

3:08 When your PC won't start because of a hardware breakdown no software can recover this PC. Take out the hard disk and put it into an external drive to copy your data onto a new computer.

Tried Acronis clone disk (HDD to smaller SSD) using 'Manual' mode. Couldn't get it to work.....Clock keeps spinning, nothing happens, program stops. Good suggestion for a Video!

How do I access my backup after creating it? Up to now whenever I connect an external hard drive to my laptop it makes a backup but I don’t know how to access the back up to use that data or simply verify that it’s accurate! Please would you tell me the steps or where I can go to find that information? Thank you So Much!

Type 'restore' in the search box at the bottom left of the screen. It's fairly self-explanatory but we're here if you need help.

I think you can have all three and some extra stuff in the same drive with Ventoy if it has enough storage. I know Rufus has the gratest reputation for this kinds of things, but i haven't heard much about Ventoy it seems very convinient.
@LironSegev10 ай бұрын
You can but then if you lose that drive or it malfunctions you lose everything at once.
@CPMAHPFA10 ай бұрын
@@LironSegev that's true, maybe just the AV, windows installer and Hiren in a separate flash for easy use and have the separate ones as backup

Does an image clone of the hdd/ssd via Macrium Reflect represent the same difference with respect to the flash drive backup in terms of being able to boot up?

If you've upgraded from XP to Windows 10, will the media disk still work? I heard that you will lose the ability to use your activation key

Great video. I tried and did not worked. I formatted the USB to Nt I forgot the name. I downloaded the Norton I downed ruf as well. I clicked on the icon and said I need the Nt stuff but I did it. Any suggestions. By the way I also did micro tend and they did not allow me to install. I needed to call support. I figure they want me to buy a subscription

can I just drag and drop the norton iso into my already created ventoy USB? I would love to add that.

No, ISOs are not files...they must be burned onto the drive to make them bootable.

Question; is this the same as making a bootable disk?
