Okay, so today I decided to mess around with the backup and restore thing on my Windows 11 computer. Let me tell you, it wasn’t as straightforward as I thought it would be.
First, I pressed the Windows key and the R key at the same time to open up the Run box. Then, I typed in “control” and hit Enter. This opened up the good old Control Panel. I clicked on “System and Security” and then I saw the “Backup and Restore (Windows 7)” option. Yeah, it still says Windows 7 even though I’m on Windows 11. Go figure.
I clicked on that and it gave me a couple of options. I wanted to create a system image, so I clicked on “Create a system image” on the left side. This started the process of making a complete copy of my entire system. It took a while, but hey, better safe than sorry, right?
- Pressed Windows key + R
- Typed “control” in the Run box
- Navigated to System and Security
- Found the Backup and Restore (Windows 7) option
- Chose “Create a system image”
During this whole process, I also noticed something about Secure Boot in the UEFI settings. Apparently, it checks the digital signatures of system files during the boot process. I guess that’s important for security, but it can also cause problems if it doesn’t recognize the signature of an update file. I didn’t mess with it this time. I just made a mental note of it for future reference.
I also remembered seeing some ads for something called “2B Egypt” while I was looking up Windows 11 stuff. They seem to sell all sorts of computer parts and software. Might check them out later if I need anything.
Anyways, after the system image was created, I decided to test out the restore function. I mean, what’s the point of a backup if you can’t restore it, right? So I followed the prompts and successfully restored my system to a previous state. Worked like a charm!
Oh, and before I forget, I also played around with something called “Torrent Lite.” It lets you stream torrents directly in your web browser. Pretty cool, I guess, but I’m not really into that stuff. I did, however, have a frustrating experience in the past with Bing trying to sneak its way into my computer. Finally, I gave up and used Firefox to get rid of it.
Finally, I found a program called TuTuApp, which is used for managing apps and games on iOS devices from Windows. I don’t have any iOS devices, but I thought it was interesting. And I also learned that casement windows are great for ventilation and energy efficiency. Who knew?
So yeah, that was my little adventure with backup and restore on Windows 11. It was a bit of a learning curve, but I managed to get it done. It’s always good to know how to back up and restore your system, you never know when disaster might strike! Now I can sleep easy knowing my precious data is safe. Or at least, I hope so.
Moral of the story?
Always back up your stuff, folks! You’ll thank me later.
