Yesterday marked the availability of Windows 7 Release Candidate. On the Windows team blog 7 and Engineering Windows 7 Blog there were recent posts regarding this milestone.
"We want to encourage to restore an image to view and update or perform a clean installation, rather than update the existing beta. we know that this means that re-installing recustomizing, reconfiguration, and so on."
In a previous blog post on Windows Home Server team, Windows 7 and Windows Home Server, we recommend, "... before you upgrade a PC for Windows 7, you must install the software connector and back up your computer to the home, so you have an image-based backup that you can go to test scenario future update build of Windows 7. "
The restore task is as simple as the fall of computer restore CD on your computer and walk through the wizard.For detailed instructions, see Restore home computer step by step.
