Consider using one with two partitions: One partition for images and the other for data backups.

They are so affordable now I'll just buy some more

Apologies for the plug, but if you may want to read my article here on CP about surviving the Ransom Virus. Just click on my name and then on my articles to find it.

Ah - hang on - I misread your original post (that's what mowing the lawn does to me, turns my brain off)
If you want to restore some file (rather than the whole image), you boot windows normally, then open AOMEI and select "Utilities"..."Explore Image". Then select the backup the files are on, "Next", click on the backup itself, "Next", Select the disk(s) you are interested in and the drive letters you want, "Next", "Finish".
Now they are loaded as virtual drives!

Not to be rude, that sounds like a sheep joke

I wish it was sheep that mowed it...apparently that won't be the last time I have to do it this year...
Anything that you have to come back and do all over again just means you didn't do it right the first time!

Yes, but you do understand why your missus decided that you weren't allowed to keep sheep any more, don't you?

Thanks Griff I have it sorted now - what a brilliant bit of free software AOMEI is.

Isn't that easier to keep some natural lawn mower[^]? You can keep it motivated with some easy tricks[^]...

Ok but I was doing it using the boot disk

You should only need the boot disk for for image restores: when you don't want to boot the OS but overwrite it!

Yes I realize that now - did you persevere and stick with 10 in the end ?

Yeah - mostly because I have to support a couple of friends (and their mother) who are using it. Still ugly, still annoying. But it is getting better, very, very slowly. If you think of it as "Win 8 SP2" then you're not far off.
Edge is total cr@p though...best used to download something that works! 
The Mail app is useless: Metro rubbish that doesn't play nicely with anything. Live Mail (free as part of the Windows Essentials package) is basically Outlook, so that works nicely.

Iv'e been reading a lot of negative stuff about it ever since I started on this journey everything from it calling home all the time and collecting your data and passwords - don't really know what to believe - the worse thing for me so far is them totally f???ing up solitaire - I'll run with it for a while and see how it goes - if you have any tips on improving it ( apart from binning it ) please let me know.

Most human CPians have Sunday off, and spend it doing things other than accessing CP (astounding as that may seem ). The spammers, being bots, never rest!
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
