[QUOTE="JustATest, post: 250921, member: 25525"] You can't use PowerShell to do the System Image Restore because you have to be inside Windows to use PowerShell; yes? However, once it is created, you can simply use your installation disc to access the "repair" mode to complete the restoral process. Now, I'm a bit hesitant to say that you can also use a previously created "system repair" disc because I have found that they do not work when Windows 8 has been installed under a UEFI configuration. The response I always get is something like "system disc not recognized." However, the system repair disc may still work if you have a legacy bios installation. However, to be sure, I always use the Win 8 installation disc (as previously described). Note from the image below that the backup, created by the PowerSell process, looks exactly like the one created via the old method: [ATTACH=CONFIG]23914[/ATTACH] Cheers! Hmm... There is a wbadmin start recovery command available that could possibly be used if one wanted to start the recovery process from within windows but I've never used it; however, I will try it since you are asking. I'll be back... [/QUOTE]
