On my Windows 10 drive (and also on a backup Windows 7 drive), I use Outlook 2016 as my email client. I have a GMail email account, however, I have it configured to be used as a POP server so my Outlook downloads the email from GMail and I don't keep anything on the POP server.

On my Linux Mint drive, I have configured Thunderbird to do the same thing. I don't use Thunderbird on the W10 drive because it updates constantly and (even I have the updates turned off) I don't trust it not to update. When it does, all of the add-ons I installed become useless and that's no good to me.

Long and short, if it wasn't for some the things I have to use W10 for, I would be a Linux user exclusively. Additionally, I am sooooo tempted to utilize a new email system if one can be found that won't put users thru the kind of crap as explained in this article.

AOMEI is very good for backing up windows and cloning a hard drive

Get one of the older versions which are 100% free VERSION 5.6 should be free
