But my question is, does windows automatically keep the 'WINRETOOLS' partition and/or the 'Image' partition updated when windows is being used? If so, I will need to clone those partitions also.
Having re-imaged a couple of machines, I would guess not. The winretools partition contains the programs needed to re-image or repair, I believe, and the image partition contains the system image. When I've done a "wipe and re-image" the machine has been set back to "as new", and I've had to re-download and re-install all the updates.
And this is almost certainly what ends up on the recovery DVD set, should you make one ...

Ok, thanks. I won't worry about copying those partitions. -- George Box: 42.3 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | 32GB Laptop #1: 42.3 | Gnome 3.20 | AMD FX 7TH GEN | 64 | 32GB Laptop #2: 42.3 | Gnome 3.20 | Core i5 | 64 | 8GB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
