Hello all, I have a questions regarding restoring WindowsImageBackup. I Created an image about a year ago and saved it on my NAS for later use, for some reason the directory containing the image was named something other then WindowsImageBackup. I've now done a clean istall of the same MSI laptop and gone back from Windows 11 to Windows 10 thinking it might make this process easier (image was created in windows 10) I've renamed the image to WindowsImageBackup and moved it to My C: drive and tried to restore it, But windows can't seem to find it, I've created a new partition and moved the image to that one, windows still can't find it. I’ve rebooted and used the "trouble shooter" method and then locate System Image, it still couldn't find it. As a last ditch effort I created a rescue disk and booted into it hoping a third party program would locate it, nope couldn't find it. Is it just me or this Windows backup/restore utility a real headf#$k
-In order for this to work does my computer name have to be the same as it was previously?
-Can the image be stored in the same drive as Windows C:, or does it need to be a different partition to restore from?
-Or do I have to create an image with a 3rd party program for the image to be recognized as an image when booting using Rescue disk?
Thankyou
