They forgot the ten reasons not to upgrade to Windows 10.

Micro$oft needs to promise with their blood if not their life that Win
10 updates would NEVER touch users' data again, ever!


Did you know that back up is a computer user's best friend?


Not if you back up a bug.

You have your choices.

Backups (a crapshoot).

or

Nothing (a guaranteed crapshoot).

*******

Did you know, that backups can even tell you that you
have bad hardware ?

I ran a verify on a Macrium MRIMG and it failed. I checked
a number of them, and noticed a pattern to the failures.

It turned out bad RAM in the computer I'm typing on, caused
the MRIMG files to be damaged. And the damage was
detectable by running "Verify".

Even when you're not using the backup, it can have "benefits".
