    I want to install some third party Windows 10 themes but I've heard that when there's a Windows update, it can make the Windows unusable. So, is there a foolproof way to backup C drive Windows 10 installation and settings so that in case of a problem, I can quickly just restore the backup?

    Replacing old hard drive, need way to copy Windows installation across

    Hey Guys,
    What would be the best way of copying/imaging the entire contents of an old system drive over to a replacement hard disk for the same machine? I need to copy the Windows installations and all other data to the new drive, and then format the old drive to use as a backup.
