I was finishing a long review but my browser crashed so in short : WFH is not reliable and can not be considered as your main backup solution.
It has mean tendencies to:
If you make partitions on your drive with software other than Microsoft like I used to do, you probably should make at least one system image with vs the file history ..lest you are greeted with a denial at time of system repair. The image will be a sort of cloaked compressed drive clone spacehog brick that will neither show its included files nor update, but it should work for you if the system crashes. Mine took like 3 hours and compressed to about 31% the size of all the data on the drive. After you make the image, copy it somewhere. If you are using a new drive, I recommend using slow format. That first image became quickly corrupted somehow. From there I recommend an incremental backup system and a restore disk/usb. .
Fairly simple to use. However, any file or folder with a pathname length greater than 184 characters will fail to be backed up and you will not be warned about it. Consider yourself lucky that I just did.
