Create a simple text file on your desktop and rename it mybackup.bat, you'll be warned about changing the file extension but that's ok. Right click the file and select Edit.

Type in the following as an example, changing the source and destination to suit your computer:

rem // mirrors all directories to F:
rem // the /XJD switch stops the attempted copying of the Junction links
rem //
robocopy c:\Users\Paul\Downloads F:\W7\Users\Paul\Downloads /MIR
robocopy c:\Users\Paul\Contacts F:\W7\Users\Paul\Contacts /MIR
robocopy c:\Users\Paul\Documents F:\W7\Users\Paul\Documents /MIR /XJD
robocopy c:\Users\Paul\Music F:\W7\Users\Paul\Music /MIR
robocopy c:\Users\Paul\Pictures F:\W7\Users\Paul\Pictures /MIR
robocopy c:\Users\Paul\Videos F:\W7\Users\Paul\Videos /MIR
pause

Save and close. To backup your files just double click the batch file.

The nice thing about Robocopy's Mirror switch is that it creates and deletes folders/files on the second disk to make an exact copy each time.

and I left the Machine running for a few hours to see what would Happen @ the scheduled update Prompt time to the MS Windows update server to see what Happened...Would I see the Yellow shield glaring back at me?

And the answer was NO Instead there was a Green Shield Showing .Never ever seen this or recall anything posted on this forum about this
Only clue was an alert message said "some
important security update was installed in Windows and required automated
restart",
Clicked on the Shield for Information and It closed (without telling us what had been Installed)
So without invoking the Full update I Looked in the "Recently Installed updates" List on Windows Update and there are 5 updates including the Latest MSRT (and Not the faulty item which has Red "X"'ed all down 2 Pages)
So we must have done something right :) ]]> BedstorfromAP http://forum.webuser.co.uk/showthread.php?t=106396 System Restore and Google Chrome http://forum.webuser.co.uk/showthread.php?t=106393&goto=newpost Tue, 15 May 2012 23:41:53 GMT This may not Happen with everybody but Just be aware of Google Chrome sometimes not running after a System Restore
It wipes out the updated files if there has been a Version update somewhere in the Period of the Sytem restore date and the current date
Hence Chrome reports a file error or something (does not even start)
To restore it Back to running order Visit the Chrome download page and "Run" the download, This will get Chrome running again in a minute or 2:)
