Windows 10: Problem with Win 10 system repair disk or recovery disk

I'd really appreciate any help anyone can give me regarding safety disks/usb. I have Windows 10 Home 64bit. It says ut is version 19042, 1502 I am trying to make a new up-to-date Windows system repair disk. My previous repair disk seems to boot up fine but the two brand new CDs I've burned have a problem - they boot up as far as the first blue screen (Keyboard layout) but I cannot get past that as the keyboard keys will not work and neither does the mouse, therefore there is no navigating around the page. I tried pressing Enter to choose UK keyboard but, again, nothing happens. I burnt two different CDs and they both do the same, ie Boot up and then Nothing. So, any suggestions - after burning I got a Windows popup message saying it was successful. The reason I want the new up to date System repair disk is that I get the impression that a Recovery USB will replace the entire Windows 10 installation - all I want is the option to repair existing installation if needed. So am I right - is Recovery a complete reinstall or does it give the option of repair or using a previous restore point ?? I have made a Recovery USB which seems to have taken up about 8.5 gb of a 16 gb USB but I did not want to test it properly in case it went on to replace all my Win 10 installation with an original version. If you can advise me on successfully burning a new System Repair CD disk, is there any way to then copy the contents of a repair disk onto a USB to create a bootable USB System Repair Drive ??? That would be so much better. Thanks in advance

What should I have as backup-a RECOVERY disk or a REPAIR disk? Are these the same or different?

Got the free upgrade to Windows 10 and I need to start making some kind of a Repair/Recovery disk.

Are these the same thing? Are they different?

Can someone list the steps needed to make this/ these disk (s)?

Thank you.

Barbara

Recommendations for Windows 10 Home system repair disk and system image creation frequency

I thought I had a good understand of backup and restore for Windows. Following a recent problem where neither my saved backup (system image) nor system recovery disk resolved my problem, I am wondering now what are the recommendations for how often I need
to create a new system repair disk or a system image.

I understand that any new files or apps and settings changes made following a backup activity can't be restored using my backup or saved system image. What I am curious to know is whether I need to make a new system repair disk and create a new system image
backup whenever Microsoft distributes a new build version.

When I had the problem I referred to, the system failed to boot up but put me into the Windows Recovery Environment, where it tried to diagnose and repair an undescribed problem. The automatic repair failed. I next tried to use my Win 10 system repair disk
to no avail. I downloaded the Win 10 ISO and tried to reinstall from it unsuccessfully. The messages I received suggested that the recovery steps I was trying were inconsistent with the installed OS. This brings me back to my original question. When Microsoft
installs a new build version (such as going from the 10568 to the 14363 builds, do I need to create a new system repair disk and/or a new system image backup? Thanks in advance for your help.
