My apologies for not getting back to you but life threw some curve balls unrelated to my PC. The reason I asked was that the Hasleo Rescue Disk appeared to be empty. I had attempted to use a 32GB disk when using Hasleo image backup and it ultimately failed because there was not enough space and...

"For Reflect a 1GB USB" Was that a typo? A 32GB Flash Drive was too small, The ISO file is 666 MB. And thanks for pointing out I could create the ISO with Hasleo. I got that part done!

Okay. I think I understand now. Found this: EXE File vs ISO File, What's the Difference? Thanks so much your help and patience!

Can it be an image of my entire system (minus personal files) as it is set up or are those two separate things? If I understand correctly, I have created an image of my system with all my settings.

@Froggie @Bree My post above was to both of you.

@Bree thanks. Well, I am at least capable of creating an Emergency Boot Disk and have all my personal files on an external drive and backed up. Do you know if "Enable Automatic Backup of System Registry when Restart in Windows 11" tutorial creates restore points? That was always an easy way to...

@Bree Is the *.DBI file created by Hasleo an ISO file? Also, is the Disk Management step related to this warning on the Hasleo site? "Please note that you may need to disable UEFI Secure Boot to boot from the bootable WinPE media created by Hasleo Backup Suite." Thanks.

I need guidance about backup or rescue processes to use for my PC with Win11 Home. The setup is as a local machine with no link to MS and no login required. The default location of all personal folders/files is on an external drive. The personal files are also backed up to another external...

Missed this one ... but am happily at the end and after running errand will change the user folder!

OMG! I carefully backed everything up. That's what took me so long. But when I signed out, the old name of the computer did not come up but the new one I gave it (though I don't remember doing that!!!) and the Administrator option. When I entered the new pw, IT FAILED! BUT when I clicked on the...

Okay. Fingers crossed.

And if that works, then what do I do? Don't know if any programs will be available.

@dacrone I assume next step would be to sign out. Will it only ask for a password and not a username?

@dacrone This PS C:\Users\Dylan> net user Administrator password_1234 The command completed successfully. PS C:\Users\Dylan>

Got this: PS C:\Users\Dylan> net user Adminstrator password_here The user name could not be found. More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2221.
