AOEMI Freeware Utility to Create a Recovery Partition
AOEMI Technology ^ | March 11, 2018 | E. Pluribus Unum

I like to reinstall Windows from scratch periodically as a means of making sure I have no embedded malware that I am unaware of.

I decided it would be handy to make an image of a fresh install and restore that rather than do it from scratch next time.

Computers with EUFI boot managers make it more difficult because you can't boot into third party software.

I did some research and found AOEMI One Key Recovery, tried it and it works great.

When your computer is booting up you can press the F11 key and choose to restore the image. Do nothing and it boots into Windows.

This is really handy when you suffer a malware attack. Rather than deal with it you can just revert to your recovery install.

I also created a separate partition on my hard drive where I store all my documents and files. That way the recovery doesn't disturb them and they are right where you left them after the recovery.

Just thought somebody else might find this useful.

Try Ztree.

It does everything Xtree used to do.

It has DOD ‘wash’ capability

Yet you trust Chinese hardware and the embedded firmware.

So one should automatically trust and install even more Chinese software? Sounds logical /S

You’re at the mercy of it anyway.
