    Hello, I’m Virginia, a fellow user like yourself.

    Sorry to hear you’re experiencing problems.

    Some updates add new security features which Microsoft would prefer not to be removed, this is why old restore points are removed.

    Many users ignore system restore in favour of disk imaging which allows for rapid rollback of Windows in case of problems. I would recommend doing the same.

    The best way to backup is to use a disk image. This will save a snapshot of your pc as an disk image, then should a problem occur you can use recovery media or the program’s recovery drive to restore the image.

    Windows has its own backup & restore but this is a deprecated feature so may have problems.

    Microsoft recommend using third party software:

    “System Image Backup (SIB) Solution

    We recommend that users use full-disk backup solutions from other vendors.”

    https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/deployment/p...

    If Windows 7 backup & restore is not working for you in windows 10/11then you may have to consider moving to third party solutions or use File History & OneDrive which just backs up certain files & folders.

    Of the two I would recommend disc imaging software.

    I use Macrium Home but there is a free version still:

    https://updates.macrium.com/reflect/v8/ReflectD...

    This is a direct download of the older free version due to Macrium no longer offering a free option with ver 8.1.

    AOMEI backup free: https://www.aomeitech.com/ab/standard.html

    EaseUS backup free: https://www.easeus.com/backup-software/tb-free....

    As for the AMD driver have you ensured the latest is installed or tried reinstalling the current driver?

    As we’re a user to user forum Microsoft will not see your comments/suggestions. I would recommend sending Microsoft feedback via the app - Windows key + F key or via the web:

    Please do not download any repair tool which may be offered by these sites other than the ones I mention/recommend.

    Thoroughly research any product which is mentioned here before you decide to download and install it.
