A system image will reproduce the current state of your computer including the currently installed programs, all files, user settings, and all customizations. The system image can then be used to restore the system to the same state as when the image was created if the need arises.
The system image can also be used to replace the factory provided restore and refresh images which do not include programs installed by you or any of the files you have created.
Clearing the temp and junk files before creating the system image will ensure that the image will be pristine and a system restored from this image will not have accumulated junk and temp files.
Uninstalling undesired software and bloatware will prevent the system image from including these programs.
Updating Windows before creating the system image will ensure that the created system image will include all released updates and security fixes.
Updating essential software such as web browsers, Java, Flash, etc., that are not part of the operating system also need to be updated so that the system image will include only current software.
The created system image will reproduce the current state of the system including all installed programs, user files, and settings.
Replacing the factory refresh and restore images with the created system image will allow subsequent system refreshes and restores to include all of the installed programs, user created files, and settings on the system during image creation.
