Since no 'expert', MVP, or staff member has seen fit to comment, I guess you could be right in your assertion that it is a crummy facility! So, OK Bigbearjedi, what programs do you recommend?

Hi Anyone, After installing/uninstalling Win 10, with much help from Kemical, I finally got Win 7 reworking and un-corrupted (ish). So, I upgraded to Win 10 again and it's good! However, I can't seem to make File History work properly. When I go to 'More Options' in Settings, Backup, I ask it...

Kemical - I turned on onedrive and found the relevant files in the onedrive directory; I copied them into the paths win backup looks for (above) and, with a bit of fiddling, it works! I now seem to have a fairly slick system. Thanks for all your help through this quagmire - tht's it from me...

Hi Kemical Its Bas again; you probably didn't expect (hoped not!) to hear from me again but I thought I'd just explain where I am. After much tinkering with Win 7, I finally got it going quite well apart from a backup glitch (which is where this all started) and a Kaspersky 16 (KIS16)...

Hi Kemical PROGRESS (of sorts) I did an upgrade reinstall of the original Win 7 but the backup problem still existed. Task Scheduler showed just 17 corrupt tasks (instead of the previous 43). So I went back to your suggested fix in gHacks and meticulously deleted the 17 corrupt registry...

Hi Kemical The original Win 10 upgrade did not work so I reverted to Win 7 this process corrupted my image files. So, if I upgrade to Win 10 again (now that all apps are supposedly compatible) will a Win 10 upgrade cure the corrupt tasks or just perpetuate them into the new installation? Bas

I thought I'd post again to sat that, sadly, this fix didn't work for me. After much fiddling, Task Scheduler revealed 42 corrupt tasks! There were 7 corrupt entries in the Registry and I followed the fix from kemical; deleting these made little difference to anything. When I attempted to...

Yeah that's probably the best way. I'm just irritated that the import/export won't work for me!

Thanks kemical, the link you gave looks the biz. However, next problem! The link involves deleting registry keys (oo er!) So, I have practised on a key I know is unneeded (CCCleaner). I exported it to my Desktop then uninstalled CCCleaner so the key was automatically deleted from the...

Thanks kemical - a useful tip if I decide to return to Win 10. However, excuse my ignorance, but how does this relate to the damaged image file and Windows backup?

Hi I recently upgraded Win 7 to Win 10; though it looked nice, several of my apps would not work, In particular, Kaspersky IS and NVIDIA Experience just would not work. I fiddled around for ages and, finally. downgraded back to Win 7. After several registry problems, I got KIS 16 and NVIDIA...
