    Sorry that link was to show how to do it free.
    It shows 2 methods on how to backup for free.

      I tried it, went to restore, it asked me to browse, I went to the flash drive folder and it really wasn’t clear what to do. On the site it seemed to come up with what drivers were backed up but didn’t do that on mine. It’s no problem, it was my choice not influenced by your post.

        This is where you start to come to balance act.
        Update window now and see what free space you have.
        Current 96GB - 7 GB for install of GOT =89GB -4gig for CiV6 = 85gb free - 7Gb for football manager = 78GB free - 5GB for steam
        = 73GB Free.
        Then Future windows updates need a minimum of 32GB free all the time .
        73 - 32 = 41GB free.
        That is not counting the space window updates take up- average 3gb
        As you can see you will soon be out of space and back to where you started from.

        Time to start and save for a larger M2 drive in my opinion.

          C drive 83.6 of 118gb free
          E drive 837gb of 930gb free

          Can I not run my games from my E drive?

            Try one at a time
            I would put steam on 118 drive.
            Some programs will let you install on E drive some won’t.
            If it lets you install GOT on E try it and see how it plays.
            E drive may be to slow to play.
            I do not game so I do not know how it will affect the game

              So steam on C drive, seems fine.

              All games are on secondary and so far seem okay.

              Boot time seems fine.

              How much of my previous problem do you think was down to space issues on C drive or was it definately AVG which has been removed?

                Combo of both
                I have not read your previous post but this one is a space issue.
                Have a look at what @Bruce advised. On win10 it is easier to route docs,pics ,downloads etc to E drive so it goes automatically.

                  Lol this is something else. So yeah it seems everything is working fine and this particular app worked fine …

                  Until today.

                  All thats changed is I installed R2games on my E drive - reluctantly may I add.

                  This browser game I believe is powered by GT Arcade.

                  I love a good conspiracy but I genuinely feel like anything related to either of these gaming platforms has given me issues.

                  Twitch will also not load via chrome.

                    Uninstall
                    Reinstall on C drive.

                        Because you said it worked fine until you installed on E
                        Or am I missing something.

                          Yeah but I’ve just gotten rid of it all together and it hasnt helped unless I need to do something else to completely get rid of it.

                                Lets ask @Malnutrition . (Post 147 & 149)
                                I think he uses revo uninstaller free.
                                Wait to see what he says.
