Conversation Between asdp101 and Daveinfl

Backup your entire hard drive PLEASE! Some people love it, some hate it. I have come across a few customers that upgraded from 7 and has had a world of troubles, luckily we did an image of the entire HD before upgrading. As a Windows 8.1 owner, my upgrade went well however if I wish to downgrade back to 8.1 it's not possible because 10 messed up my ability to do a factory recovery. As I said, so far I've had no problems, but the fact that it messed up my ability to reset (Windows 10 gives you I think 30 days to go back, after that, the ability to do so is gone) my computer has not made me a happy camper. There are freeware disk imaging programs out there, I used one from techsupportalert.com and worked great. Keep your piece of mind and get a usb external hd and use the image software to backup all partitions, that way, you know you're good. Thanks, David.
