OK, so I spent the last couple of week(ends) really getting everything together in a 1709 build, including adding all of my hardware and getting all the drivers just right, not to mention most of my apps installed (I say most, because I didn't spend the time installing every game that I might have a chance to play in the next 6 months - those settings never vary anyway, so it's easy to reinstall them on demand).
Last night I let Macrium make a full image of both my System drive (1 TB SSD) as well as my Users drive (256 GB SSD).
Today, I finally joined the computer back to the Insider program, downloaded 83, made an .ISO, and then let it reboot to install.
Upon logging back in, I opened snappy driver installer to check to see which, if any, drivers had reverted - and my system restore shows as being turned off in in SDI.
Sure enough, I opened System Properties dialog, System Protection tab, and it is turned off for all drives (which, normally, is off for all drives except the System drive).
Anyone else see / notice this upon install of 83 / any Insider build?
Interesting.
Maybe that is why I kept having to reinstall so much in December.... Although Ethernet I tried to use System Restore then, it was always enabled....
is there a 3rd party app that provides similar functionality to timeline?
Hi there, @squaleca.
Not that I've seen, nor can find in the Store or online. Doubt if there will ever be one. The Timeline feature is an integral part of the Windows system and one's MSA, for it stores the history of all of one's devices within one's account on MS servers. Where that is remains to be known. Most probably OneDrive.
That leads me to ask a question; Does anyone with Timeline able to use it without having OneDrive integration turned on?
