  1. Reinstalling windows question


    I got a new SSD and Windows is currently installed in my HDD and I want to move it over. To my understanding you could put the Windows installation on a USB and boot from the USB to install Windows to the new drive, and since it's the same PC you wouldn't need a product key and it would activate automatically. Would this work? Also would I lose anything from the old drive?

    Reinstall System Image Question

    Reinstall System Image Question –
    When saving a system image in Windows 10, it saves it as “Windows Image Backup.” I then add the date to the listing and save it. Therefore, I have a list of backups that read like “Windows Image Backup 9-4-19.”
    So, this is my question.
    If I need to reinstall my system image, does Windows allow me to choose any of the backups in my list to reinstall?
    Thanks,
    Jerry

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Reinstalling windows question :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
