Windows 10: Windows 10 back up options

Recently my PC locked, and would not recognise my pin nor Microsoft log in password.These were checked on a second computer to be valid.Finally did a clean install Windows 10, as nothing else worked.All ok now.Ran a complete new back up to a removable hard drive, ticking Administrator user, drive C OS and drive D data.Also included a system image.My question is, next time I run the back up, should I still continue to use those settings, or will I be duplicating and wasting time. as the full back up took over 2 hours.

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
