ElCuco68 Posted August 17, 2022 Posted August 17, 2022 (edited) Okay, so my once future-proofed supercomputer is bogging down with all manner of crap-ware and what-not, and it's long past time to nuke it and start afresh. Problem is, it's got so much valuable stuff on it, and I'm wary of losing some of it. Pictures, videos, and the like I have covered by putting on M-Disks, but trying to figure out and remember programs, passwords, etc. THOUSANDS of VR games, and just about every DCS plane in my stable. But I've gotten lazy over the years, and let me tell you I'm no fan of that damned Google Drive helping themselves to my pictures and videos. I'd really like to do this right with a minimum of hassle. I own Windows 1 pro original software and license, so that shouldn't be a problem. Those NVMe chips are a pain, though. Any guidance would greatly appreciated!!

BitMaster Posted August 18, 2022 Posted August 18, 2022 When I have to fix such machines, the first tool I use is macecraft‘s Powertools for longer than a decade. in the past you could use it 14 days full featured, that may not be the case anymore but it’s worth every penny if you buy it.
