You won't be able to back up any files which are in use (ie files which windows needs to run).It'll work for your data files though, but you'll have to pick through your C drive manually to make sure you've got them all copied over.Best way I reckon is to use summat like Ghost which will take a snapshot of your whole drive, compress it & store it as a single (big) file.All you do then is format your drive, use Ghost to restore from the file, and it'll bring everything back exactly as it was when you took the snapshot <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/classics/thumbsup.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":thumbsup:" title="thumbs up    :thumbsup:" data-shortname=":thumbsup:" /></blockquote>
