No, you didn't "have it right" I'm sorry to say. Contrary to how you "understand it", running multiple differential backups does NOT result in...
It's b-a-c-k! Dammit! Once again I'm seeing RunOnce commands for the Macrium ReflectMonitor utility under...
Understood. As you say, it may take some time to determine whether uninstalling/reinstalling overcomes the problem completely, but it will...
When Reflect begins a backup operation, it creates and locks the zero-byte ''backup_running" flag file in the backup destination folder and it...
It depends on what you mean by "1 growing DIFF". Perhaps some of your confusion arises from Reflect's provisions for managing backup images...
Although its relevance (if any) to the specific issues mentioned here isn't clear, my comment under that AskWoody topic "More problems with Win10...
I can only say that's truly remarkable reasoning as a basis for concluding that all of what you call "the way things are supposed to be" was and...
Perhaps or perhaps not. One could put forth almost any surmise as a possible explanation. I only know that delaying a process to "recover...
Of course some Windows background operations do some good things like those that you mention. But that's not how WaaSMedic states its own...
Whether relevant to specific issues mentioned here is difficult to determine, but it may be worth noting that upgrading to Windows 10 v1709 sets...
Really?! If true, that's certainly shocking news ... to me at least. Where and how did you discover that? In order to load its own stuff "along...
You're welcome. Error code 21 is literally "Device not ready", but it may arise from a range of problems with either the drive itself, and/or its...
No problem that I've seen myself so far. There are so-called "placeholders" for those cloud-only "files on demand", but not the files themselves.
What kind of problem are you seeing with your MR backup images? They should include any files that actually exist in (have been downloaded to)...
Same production dates for both? It seems to be a rather confusing situation. This AskWoody series might help to explain some of it.
Thanks @Peter2150 -- Sounds good to me.
Sounds like it might be a reasonable "built-in" alternative to installing Macrium MIG or other anti-ransomware protection for backup files alone,...
Windows 10 version upgrades (a.k.a. "Feature Updates") have always re-enabled restore points (a.k.a. "System Protection") in my own experience,...
Your guess is certainly as good as mine. I don't have MIG installed, but on the other hand, Macrium's peripheral activities don't seem to pay...
At this point, I haven't even a foggy notion about its unprecedented (or at least never before noticed) HKCU inclusion. My "barebones" Reflect...
Speaking of undocumented behavioural quirks, does anyone know or want to take a wild guess regarding this RunOnce operation that the Macrium...
There's not really much to investigate. As Brian K mentioned above, not all WinRE WIMs are exactly identical even for the same Windows version....
A comparison of the various Macrium Reflect home and business editions is provided on this web page. There's really no difference between the...
Not having installed the Reflect Free edition myself, I can't speak with absolute certainty. However, if you updated your installation using the...
Other than restoring a pre-v7 backup (the very best way to do it) I can't, in good conscience, recommend any uninstall method other than that...
