About this tag
Windows B+R, short for Windows Backup and Restore, is a built-in backup tool in Windows that allows users to create system images and file backups. In discussions on WindowsForum.com, users compare Windows B+R with third-party backup solutions like Macrium Reflect, noting that while Windows B+R is functional, some question its long-term support. The tool is often evaluated based on features such as encryption, ease of use, and reliability. For users seeking a free or simple backup option, Windows B+R remains a viable choice, though some prefer paid alternatives for advanced capabilities.

    Windows 11 I have used Macrium Reflect

    I have used Macrium Reflect for years and being free it lacked encryption. I just found that out b/c it is EOL for free. I keep trying different ones and don't know whether to stay with Macrium and pay or go elsewhere. I tried Windows B+R and it was fine but heard it is not long for this world...
