Windows 10: Revert to Windows version 1909 without using Macrium Reflect

I have Win10 Pro (64-bit). Ever since I updated from 1909 to 1204, I've been getting Esent 642 vss errors. I've seen threads where others had that problem also. On some it seems to go away or people have been either ignoring it or clearing all warnings. I had finally gotten 1909 to be free from all errors (except Bonjour when rebooting) & had no problems with it.

Is there a way to go back to version 1909 without using Macrium Reflect? The reason I don't want to use Reflect is because I've made numerous changes to my documents & don't remember which files I've changed since the update. There are also changes to apps like QTTabBar & others, but I don't recall all the changes & which apps I've changed.

I suppose that if I used Reflect to go back to version 1909, I could then mount my latest incremental & copy my entire Document folder over, but that seems like a lot of work.

My questions are:
1. Is there a way to revert to 1909 without losing all my changes to documents & apps?
2. Should I just bite the bullet & just accept these numerous event errors?

Thank you in advance!

:)

Test copy is a function of TSR Copy Changed Files. It shows a list of files that will be copied instead of actually copying them.

If happy with the list do a real copy.



You know you can mount and explore a Macruim Reflect image?

How do I mount a Macrium disk image?

Well if you roll back just mount the backup image and use TSR to copy changed personal files where file content was changed or where files are missing (exist on backup image but not on rolled back windows)

That sounds like an excellent suggestion. And thanks for the links to that app. I wasn't aware that I could do a "test copy" using Reflect. Where do you find that option?
