FDISR & Total Uninstall

I didn't try this yet, but what do you think about this.

1. Snapshot-1 = winXPproSP2 + Total Uninstall (TU)
2. I copy snapshot-1 to snapshot-2
3. I copy snapshot-2 to snapshot-3
The final result : I have 3 snapshots with the same contents.

4. I boot in snapshot-1 and I install Adobe Reader (AR) monitored by TU.
5. I boot in snapshot-2 and I install CCleaner (CC) monitored by TU.
6. I boot in snapshot-3 and I install Amust Registry Cleaner (ARC) monitored by TU.

7. I copy/update from snapshot-2 to snapshot-1
8. I copy/update from snapshot-3 to snapshot-1

After that :
Snapshot-1 = winXPproSP2 + TU + AR + CC + ARC.
I'm sure that AR, CC and ARC will be fine, but what about TU ?
My assumption is that TU is corrupted or at least not correct.

(I can keep TU correct, if I don't do it this way, but than the fun would be gone.)

 

No ErikAlbert

Snapshot #1 would only contain 'winXPproSP2 + TU +ARC.' That's it!.

 

Yeah, I can understand the confusion.
When you do copy/update (or refresh? ), you should be thinking of 'make equal to'.

Files that exist in #3 and don't exist in #1 will be copied to #1.
Files that exist in #1 and don't exist in #3 will be deleted from #1.

The result will be that #1 is equal to #3, while #3 is dominant.

 

Oh I see, my mistake. Well if I would have tried it for real, I would have noticed it of course.
I can understand why everybody is laughing at me now.

 

I think this is much better.

1. Snapshot-1 = winXPproSP2 + Total Uninstall (TU) + AR monitored by TU.
2. I copy/update snapshot-1 to snapshot-2
3. I reboot in snapshot-2 and install CC monitored by TU
4. I copy snapshot-2 to snapshot-3
5. I reboot in snapshot-3 and install ARC monitored by TU.

After that :
Snapshot-3 = winXPproSP2 + TU + AR + CC + ARC and TU will be fine.
If I refresh Snapshot-1 with snapshot-3 both are equal.

 

Of course, but wilbertnl understood my misinterpreting and that makes me feel less stupid LOL.
