Windows 10: best way to replace or configure robots.txt to prevent indexing.

System is running Windows 10 and acting as an Apache website host.
We have always had good results with using a robots.txt file consisting of only a few brief statements;
The two lines of > "User-agent: *" and "Disallow: /"

Lately we have noticed occasional reports of some documents turning up in various google cache searches with the contents attributed to the exact folder they are in inside the private website.

If I wanted to prevent ALL indexing or scanning by ALL robots, what is the best way to accomplish this? These sites are meant to be accessed only by the people who have the link to them. Most contain private content that should never be attributed to anyone. I would prefer a method of keeping all indexing or scanning bots out of the sites.

Anti-advertising if you will?
Robots.txt doesn't seem to even stop Google-bots anymore

Best way to make a bootable WIndows 10 image on USB with all existing softwares, drivers & configurations to deploy on identical hardwares?

Best way to make a bootable Windows 10 image on USB with all existing software, drivers & configurations to deploy on exactly identical hardware?

There is no difference in the hardware we want to deploy that image on.

Planning to deploy this image on over 4000 desktops of same hardware configuration and make and model.

Is there a freeware/opensource/free software that we can use for this purpose commercially?

can you suggest a solution and KB article where it's step by step explained how to achieve it or do it?

How to prevent index rebuild after each major update

After each major update, I discover that the Windows Search index is being rebuilt. This is very resource-hungry and means that the index search is unusable for several days. Programs are competing with the indexing service for resources, with a severe degradation
in performance as a result unless I throttle the process while I'm working, which of course prolongs the agony.

I installed the update to 10586.164 on 9 March. The computer has been running more or less continuously since then, but there are now a week later still 50,000 items to be indexed of the 2.3 million total.

• Is this re-indexation really necessary?
  
  
• Is there any way of preventing it from happening?
