Hi guys, Today i m going to explain you something very useful and relevant information about ” System Image” in few easy steps!!
What is system image is used for ?
In my previous post i explain how to install windows 10
Second name for system image is called ” Backup”, with many users happens that when they start their computer or laptop and suddenly windows pop up with the CMD box or sometime with any error notification,sometime the windows registry files get corrupted, sometime this type of errors lead many users to format their entire PC!! but to avoid that formatting of our computer we have to create system image so just in case if any windows registry files get corrupted and that leads us to only solution of formatting then we can use system image to get all our settings,media files back from where we stopped!!! creating system image or i say creating backup of our system on regular basis can avoid and sudden disaster from loosing our data.
I will recommend for window 8 user to upgrade their windows 8 to 8.1 cos its very important, and they’ve moved the system image option below the File History section. you’ll get that in Start Screen Search.
but if you’re Window !0 user then you can search that option in Start Menu.
window 8.1 user search for system image
in the image on left side after clicking on File history you’ll see system image backup option at the lower left hand side as shown in the image below.

For Windows 7 user click on window button and type ” back up your computer/files” without quotes and select “create system image” fro the top left side of the corner as show in the image below
select create system image
Once you click “create system image” one box will pop up and ask you’ll have decide weather you want that “backup” or the “image” to save inside your computer or want to store in your external drives eg:DVD.
Select location of Backup
after that select the drives you want to add for backup as per below image
select the drive which you want to backup
after that it will display with the backup files size,just make sure you’ve that much space available,if not then you can go back and make some space available and can proceed ahead.

After hitting “NEXT” button it will show progress bar of creating backup. time for creating backup or image file will be vary as per the size of that particular backup files. so don’t get worried even if it takes lil long time 🙂
Once the process is completed you will see one pop up box asking for creating the system repair disc just go ahead and press “OK”

After click on creat disc it will burn that “image” on your dvd or on whatever location u choose for.
and when in future if it required you to restore your system image or backup then just type “system restore” in your search box by pressing window button.
