Using windows backup can I get a full backup/image 100%

I'm confused by statements on the sites of Microsft describing utility Win 7 backup (more precisely that it is not save some program files). If I had to use a backup of business solution, then, I am convinced that I could restore a bare metal box to the EXACT State as it was before the failure; each file would be restored, data would be stored as flat files, etc..

Simple question: using Windows backup and by selecting "Let Windows choose" give me who?

You must use the installation of 'Create Image' for bare metal recovery. Highly recommended!

  • Complete restoration of the Server 2008 R2 vmware workstation for windows backup image 9

    9 workstation.

    I am trying to restore a backup of windows server r2 2008 (made with the built-in windows backup) on an existing installation of vmware server 2008 r2. Basically, I just want to replace the facility with the backup version.

    The problem is, the windows to the backup image is on a USB key.

    The restore process is:

    1. Connect the usb host drive
    2. Insert the windows server r2 DVD in drive
    3. initialize the Server 2008 r2 comments and press the button ESC at startup, then boot from the CD
    4. Select 'repair' installation
    5. but here's the problem, windows backup image is on my USB, but at this stage I do not see the USB key from the client in the repair installation process.

    Ideas of the best way to do it?

    Thank you

    Okay, downloaded the ISO Image of Windows Server 2008 R2, created a new Virtual Machine, added the Windows Server backup and made a full backup without the destination for the backup drive, a USB Flash drive.

    Started the virtual machine of the ISO Image and it does not see the backup from a USB Flash drive, although I can see it from the command prompt.

    Also created a record gross hard pointing to the USB Flash drive and started the virtual machine of the ISO Image and he does not see the backup of the hard disk gross of the Flash USB drive, because the Virtual Machine had problems during the boot process.  Forget the exact error message, but I tried as a whole disk and a partition.  So the why I tested it by copying it to a normal file depending on the disc hard virtual (and worked).

    Finally I created a regular file based hard and copied the backup folder of the USB Flash it and then started the virtual machine drive of the ISO Image and it had no problem see the backup from the normal file based hard.

    It seems that you have to take the long way around, but at least, you should be able to see!

    I know not when booting from the ISO Image or a disc of Windows Server 2008 R2, backup tools command line are available to restore the image however you could examine the issue.  I would like to but I just don't have the time at the moment.

  • get this error code when I use windows backup or set a date to restore 0x8007007B

    get the error 0x8007007B when I try to set the resrore or back up files is because I have given dell safe? Inspiron windows 7 64 bit

    Hello

    Please join Microsoft Community where you can find the necessary information on Microsoft products!

    You can't use the backup and restore feature of Windows 7 and get error 0x8007007B.

    This can happen due to antivirus programs.

    I suggest you follow the steps mentioned below:

    Method 1:

    a. right-click on computer and choose Properties.

    b. click on the System Protection.

    c. in the list of available drives, see if you have a partition into two (2 times the same partition), one with the missing Word or missing.

    d. If Yes, uncheck this missing partition.

    Method 2: Turn off the antivirus

    See the site:

    Disable the anti-virus software

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    I hope this helps. If the problem persists, let know us and we would be happy to help you.

  • What files are backup using Windows backup

    Hello

    I have Windows Vista and if I click on "Start/Control Panel/Back up your files" which files are saved?  Will be all my folders under the folder of saved Documents?   Also, I always choose to use a new CD, can I get a complete the back of my files on the CD?

    Thanks for your help.

    Phil

    Hi zipone,.

    The following article covers how backup in Vista.  You will notice that it indicates he backup certain file types and you can change the choice at this time here in the process.  http://www.ehow.com/how_2058419_backup-files-windows-vista.html.

    Here is another article on the backup process that is a little more detailed: http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-backup-your-data.

    Here is another article on what Vista will choose backup and what you choose to back up: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/How-does-Windows-choose-which-files-to-back-up.

    If you choose to save to a CD, it backs up all selected for this CD (as long as there is enough space).

    Note that this is not a full image backup but just a selective or full of designated files backup (mainly data, videos, audios and other).  For image backups (if your version of Vista is supported, or you use a 3rd party program), it is quite different.  After the back if you are interested in information on this subject.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck.

  • tried to check my e-mail account with the States Foxfire but error message that I need to update my browser Internet explorer. I don't use IE, but can't get rid of it?

    How can I get rid of Internet Explorer so that I can check my e-mail account in Firefox? Tried to turn on or off windows features in Control Panel. no help? I use windows 7
    Thanks BobW

    First of all, you don't need to remove IE. Windows allows programs to use components of Internet Explorer, so removing may well break things unexpectedly.

    Second, the Firefox you used to post this thread to date for me look. Have you tried to verify your account in Firefox? If you are clicking on a link and Windows will launch it is to say automatically, try to copy the address in the address bar of IE in a new tab in Firefox and press ENTER to load the page in Firefox.
