    Windows Phone 10: How do I restore an older backup ?

    I have a Lumia 640 with Windows Phone 10 OS and lets just say something happened and I need to restore a backup.

    I want to know 2 things:

    • How do I restore a backup.
    • How can I change the backup to an older one.

    For 1. I want to know the steps I need to take to restore a backup because most ways I found on the internet are focused on users that want to transfer to a new phone. I think I need to reset my phone and it will ask me if I want to restore from a backup
    but here comes the 2.

    I accidentally pressed "Back up now" after the thing that happened and I believe that overwrote my good backup. My good backup was taken automatically on 18 December (yesterday) and I accidentally made another backup with all the stuff broken on 19 December
    (today). So I want the older backup, not the newest.

    Please reply ASAP. I can only use my phone as a plain phone and not as an actual Smart Phone until I get this done.

    Restoring Windows 10 Image using Macrium Reflect


    In addition to the above. Here's my suggestion in step by step.
    I assume you have Macrium Installed in your current HD and already made a backup copy.
    1. Connect your new HD via USB port and boot up.
    2. Run Macrium, click on Restore tab then select the Backup Image that you made to restore
    3. click on "select a different target disk" then select your new HD as destination

    4. Proceed to restore then Shutdown and disconnect the old HD and replace with the new HD
    5. Boot up with your new HD.

    Restoring a backup from an older laptop to a new one.

    Free hard drive backup/restore program?

    I am looking for a free (freeware) program that will back up and restore a hard drive. I'm looking to clone a few external hard drives. If the program will backup the used space instead of the whole drive this will be awesome! Thanks for any suggestions.
