So I know about the good ones like Macrium and Acronis, but I am looking into something that'll get the job done for free.
I know of some older software like Paragon, but want to see what's up with 2019.
I simply want to create a full image backup of my SSD which is 250GB and only has about 90GB worth of data on it so that in the event that something goes sideways, I can restore to how it once was keeping all my programs, settings, registry, etc. intact.
If anyone has any recommendations of free software that can help me cut through the clutter of supposedly good to use software I find in lists on different articles on the web that would be great.
I don't need any fancy features, and I don't need to have it run on schedules.
just a plain and simple straight image backup of my SSD in it's current state is all I'm looking for.
And I would use the built in Windows 7 backup image utility in Windows 10, except I've already tried that and it doesn't want to work properly.
So I am looking for some 3rd party software to do this for me instead that I can then take the backup file and upload it to the cloud.
