    Solved random and unwanted folders being created all over drives

    nope, checked it with malwarebytes but no infections. I believe its something to do with microsoft, since the folders do begin with MS PS if internet connection fails after the installation of malwarebytes, look for 'web protection' and switch it off, there's no other fix

    Testing system image backups

    Hi everyone, I recommend (after having a lot of dud system image backup dvd's from my old laptop), that if you create system image backups and have the tools to do so, you test your newly created images in a virtual machine (eg vmware workstation)
