Where are Windows TEN "restore files" saved/stored on Windows 10

Where are Win10 restore files stored on this system ?

I just upgraded to Win10, and it seems to be working fine.

thanks for any info... acmanten

Is there an info file showing steps 1,2,3,4,etc what is suggested to be done, saved, and or backed-up right after a new Upgrade to Win 10 has been done.

Thanks for your comments.. acmanten

Are there any suggestions in a tutorial file for making a OSI file (with names of folders and file names) on DVD or USB which would be bootable in case of needed system recovery ?

I also have a valid/usable Nero 2015 on this desktop. Thanks,,, acmanten

Does Microsoft have a Windows 10 backup program available to Windows 10 users....

*** that would have info and show/tell all the files/folders needed....- free or otherwise. ?

The windows.old file is in the root of the system drive.

Show "all the files/folders needed" -- for what?

If your intention it to backup your Win10 install so that it could be restored later, that is not a file/folder backup; instead, that is an image backup -- and images off entire partitions, not just selective files and folders.

There is not a single file or list of files that you would backup in order to do a full recovery. IF your intent is to have a backup that can be used to restore a working system, then what you need is a full image backup. And, in that case, my recommendation is using a third-party tool like Macrium Reflect.

I wonder if anyone knows the folder or area where Windows 10 restore files are maintained. ?

... not referring to anything else.... so where are they ?
