    System Image question


    I want to make a system image, but to get to the option to make one I have to go into Backup and Restore (Windows 7).

    My Previous OS was Win7 but I deleted the .old folder left behind, will there be any issues if I make the image here regardless if it says windows 7 or not?

    I'd recommend using Macrium Reflect Free instead and write the image to an external USB hard drive.

    No you won't have any problems, the image will be fine. However make a rescue CD and check it can be seen I had to enable system restore that the upgrade of windows 10 disabled before my images could be seen by the rescue CD.
