Poll on Backup software

Which Free Windows Backup Programs Do We Recommend for 2024

With Macrium Reflect Free support ending on 1/1/2024, and many, many free Windows backups failing to support ReFS (now back again in Windows 11 23H2, thanks to additions for "Create Dev Drive" in the Dev Home app) it's hard to find a good free Windows backup program that does it all. So far, I...

SOLVED -- Settings and Windows 10 Home Activation

Thanks to this topic (below) that I found today, I was able to properly Activate my Chuwi Hi10 win10 home tablet just now !!
* link: Windows 11 Pro Activation Issue - New Laptop

I downloaded the ShowKeyPlus (link below) app and ran it. Then, I tried all the keys shown in the app's 'Windows Product Information' report screen.
* link: ShowKeyPlus - Windows 10 Help Forums -- I downloaded v1.1.18.0

When I came to the OEM key in that report, it activated!
* Activation: Windows is activated with a digital license
