    System Image Check?


    How can I check that my system image will work in the case of a crash, Windows 10.

    Simple answer is you can't with Windows Built in backup. Free third party software sunch as: Macrium Reflect Free or AOMEI Backupper do have the option to verify the image.

    One way is if you have a spare disk, try to image to that. But if your recovery environment can see disk and find your image, you're 98% good, for the last 2% a test recovery is really the only way of knowing. Also if your Imager can verify the image(like Macrium Reflect can) will close the gap even more.
