    T... As for using Acronis TI I still have the 2010 Home edition in use here on the 64bit 10 Pro and never have any issues while the latest 2016 however gets the "bloatware" tag according to someone who was also looking at it. The compression of data however keeps the images smaller taking up less disk space then the Windows backup option.
    I just had to do a restore of one of my PC's using Acronis TI 2015. It worked so maybe I'll stop worrying about the Windows system image backup.

    Acronis has always had a good rep as well as years back during the XP era? hearing good word about Norton Ghost. Here the 2010 is still showing the software is generally reliable while someone mentioned not preferring the latest version.

    I think from 2010 to the present three versions newer is a good sign!
