Windows 10: What extra software do I need with Windows 10

OK ready to go.
How do I refresh in Ten Forums to see if you reply, as I wasn't aware of your reply until I moved off then back again to the page.

 

Lizzy, you can use your User Control Panel (UserCP) for that. Select the UserCP link and you will see a list of new posts in all threads you have subscribed to. You are automatically subscribed to your own threads, and those started by other members where you have posted.

Clicking the small blue dot (#1 in screenshot below) in front of the thread title takes you to the first unread post in that thread (first post since your last visit in that thread), clicking the small arrowhead (#2) takes you to the last post in that thread:

Just hit F5 or click refresh.

These are all sample screens from my computer, the drives and data will be different on yours. Process is the same.


Here are the steps to setup the backup commands. Do them first and let me know when done. Then we will start the actual backup. Open the shortcut on your desktop that Macrium created, you'll see this. Click the option to create the image.





Make sure these boxes are checked. Click on the little search symbol to look for your Touro drive.




Find the folder you made on Touro for the backups and select it.





Click Advanced Options and Verify, check the box to Verify the Image.





Click Next.





Click Finish.





UN-check the run now box and check the save definition....call it anything you like.






Post back when done......

 

First question asked is if I want to install Rescue Media?

 

not now. I'll explain later...

 

*Thumbs You should see the definition you created in the top of the screen. I think you're probably running a little short on time right now. We can pick this up in a few hours if you like. No need to rush it. You've got the setup done. What do you think? Your choice.....
@Lizzy - you still there?

 

Yes let's do it later. I was called away. Is around 6 or7 pm ok for you (my time)

 

Here's the last page

 

That's just fine! About 12-1 pm my time! I'll feed the cats and be ready! Just PM me when you're ready. I keep my inbox open in a separate tab on my browser, so I'll see your message. Later....

 

Lizzy, when you get back, two quick things before backup.

1. Look at the slot on your laptop where you plug in the Touro drive and tell me what color you see. Is it Black or Blue?

2. Attach your Touro drive. Right click the Start Button (bottom left), click Disk Management, expand the display full screen, take a screenshot and post it, please. It will look similar to this. This is my computer, so the names and size and stuff will be different, but the display will be similar.

Thanks, TC

 

Hi I'm in the USB3 (blue) in the docking station.

 

Hi, Lizzy! Thanks for the info! Glad to see it's USB3! Ok, here we go with the backup....Make sure the Touro is attached. Right click the definition file, right click RUN, and click FULL. It will take off. You'll see a green progress bar at the bottom with percent completed. Also, on the bottom right you'll see estimated time, this will decrease as it goes on. Make a note of the estimated time when it starts. The actual overall time will be about twice that, because we are also verifying the backup (always a wise thing to do). At the end of backing up step it will start verifying. When all is done, you'll hear a little beep and a box will display with the completion message and the total time. Before you click OK on that box, take a screenshot of the entire display and post it. You can use the computer during the backup, but I would suggest not doing anything heavy. To let me know all is progressing, please post back every 5 minutes or so with the percent completion. Based on the files you currently have I'm estimating 15-20 minutes total. OK? Everything clear?

 

Thanks, just got them.

 

Go for it! I'll be hitting F5!!

 

Total time 37 mns. Time remaining 34 mns
