    Restoring W7 backups


    Hi Everyone.

    Just prior to upgrading my W7 Home 32 bit OS to W10, I had to reinstall W7 to another HDD due to the original disc malfunctioning but without thinking, I then upgraded the newly installed W7 to W10 before restoring my backup. My question is:- Can I now restore my backedup files to W10 via Easus To Do Backup?

    Thank you.

    :)

    W7 version of Backup and Restore is running on my machine after upgrading to W10 and stalls completely ,while backup is in process

    Original title: Does Backup and Restore (W7 on a W10 machine) lock the hard drive?

    The W7 version of Backup and Restore is still running on my machine after upgrading to W10. I notice that the machine stalls almost completely - it's hard to get anything done - while backup is in process.

    Is that normal or do I have some weird setting?

    Thanks

    Please confirm whether W10 keeps W7 Backup and Restore feature. This is critical. Thank you.

    I am afraid we may not be talking about the same thing.

    It is all my data files that I need to preserve in Windows 7 Backup and Restore, not the system configuration.

    File History does not allow a computer to restore files from another computer's File History without altering the backup file. Windows 7 Backup and Restore does allow a computer to restore data files form another computer's backup files without changing
    the backup file. This is mission critical to me. It is why I am reinstalling W7 into my primary laptops.

    I had that feature with W10 initially, but it stopped working.

    I need to know if W10 disables W7 Backup and Restore.
