You need to do this after every update.

No, not every update, they will say so when needed.

Only if you check though.

Have to scroll down to bottom of update offer screen.

I never noticed that.
Thanks for the tip Mike

It slighty worries me the rate of recent updates, and I am worried one day one will seriousy break it. Probably best to keep one or two backups in older version just in case.

Hi,



My thoughts exactly.

Best free backup software ever. Yeah.

Cheers,

Rate of updates? Too fast? Last one was 5/24/16 - small bug fix. 5 weeks ago. How slow should it be??

Yep, that's why I suggested to boot from HD/SSD. Some people are still burming to CD everytime there's an update. It is so easy to setup and only take seconds to update.
BTW, you can set up the same way if you use @Kyhi 's Recovery tool.

I use a microSD card for that, takes only 10 mm square to keep it.

I've got a little 1GB partition stuck out on the (logical) end of the SSD with Macrium PE copied to it. Without a drive letter. Shows up on F12 boot as UEFI OS. Can't boot to Boot Manager? Boot USB and/or DVD broke? That's still there. Just a little trick. Think Steve showed me.

OK, time you joined the Video Geeks, and get an intro/outro, and then get it posted on the list.

Nice tip but tbh it only takes a few minutes to upgrade iso, so I will probably always still do it , as you can be sure the one time you did not, is when you need it urgently. I will always be certain I have latest iso.

I have even set up a simple batch file that updates Kyhi's winpe iso in a few minutes without any effort.
