Windows 10: Backup and restore Windows 7 with Windows 11 computer?

Can I use a Backup and restore Windows 7 image to restore to a different Windows 11 computer?

Windows 7 backup

Haven't used it but sounds like it based on Backup and Restore Center info found here. Says you can choose what files and folders if you want and also mentions a system image. Quicken has it's own backup option under one of the menus, use that too. I have for my mom and it's a breeze. Just reinstall app and use Restore in Quicken.

 

Windows 7 Backup question

Hi, I have Windows 7 x64 HP. I've used the backup and restore feature to backup on an external drive, and I've also burned a copy of the restore software that it wished me to burn onto a CD. My question is, if ever my PC fails or something and I need to restore my files, will I need anything beyond the external drive and the backup CD? Or will I need the original OS CD as well? I upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista but I don't have my Vista disc anymore (lost it a long time ago), which basically means the Windows 7 upgrade disc shouldn't work either (to be honest, I haven't touched the disc in nearly a year so I don't really know where the W7 update disc is either :/). Thanks.

 

Windows 7 backup & restore

And please note, "Rottweiler guesses that Backup and Restore (Windows 7) will remain in Windows until upgrades from Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 are no longer permitted" statement is not based on facts.

Backup and Restore (Windows 7) function was removed and discontinued in Windows 8. The Control Panel applet used by Backup and Restore was renamed to Windows 7 File Recovery.

But this function re-appeared in Windows 8.1 with a same name and can be found in Control Panel even in latest Windows 11 builds and is fully functional and supported.

However Microsoft hides this applet in Windows 11 and suggests to use online backup to OneDrive.
