    How to backup Windows 10 upgrade


    I purchased windows 8.1 and got free upgrade to Windows 10. Now my question is if I want to reinstall my OS then I only have Win 8.1 disk with me, what should I do ?. Is there any way to backup the Windows 10 upgrade or else I will have to spend long hours downloading the Win 10 upgrade all over again ?
    Or If I have purchased a Windows 10 for a different system , can I use that disk in any way ?

    :)

    Better yet, do an image backup to an external hard drive. No reinstall required, just restore the image and you're done, 20 minutes or so start to finish.

    You just need to image backup windows 10 in your usb drive or other devices . When needed, you can restore your whole system.
