'Lo all Have to move to w10. Looking for simple solutions and testing base. Just wanting to check in re doing a test inplace upgrade from w7 to w10 in an ISR snapshot. Any experience? Any insights? Thx, Longboard
Way back I did an FDISR recovery going back to XP from W7. But I no longer actively us FDISR. Reason. Huge use of diskspace and it's way so slow compared to a Macrium restore. My other concern was Raxco added protection for ransomware attacks on other snapshots to the business version, but not the personal version. That was a huge marketing error in my opinion. Pete
OK I have the biz version I have had stable setup with FDIR/StorageCraft/VMWare/TeraByte for a while: could be a bit clunky. I should probably check out Do you have a suggestion for an imager/recovery optiopn to set up a trial upgrade ?? Could macrium do that. ( I guess I could do a VM ??) L'board
When I've upgraded my system to Win 10, I always imaged win 7 first. Then I'd image the win 10 system. Can go back in forth but they are all full restores.
Hi LongBoard, I haven't done any upgrade from 7 to 10 with IR installed. I suspect that windows will try to move the snapshots in the "windows.old" folder and the installation would take much longer to complete (could be the reason that raxco added the security driver).
