All the more reason to keep backup and disk mirrors/snapshots.

That's the first thing I do before I put a computer/device into use: update the os, install all the software, organise everything how I like it (like create a separate user data partition - which incidentally crypto locker misses). Then take a full image back up.

Then if anything messes up, be it dodgy registry, drivers, hardware failure or viruses. I can get a computer back to how I like it in 30mins. System restore is ok, but it is a bit limited in comparison.

No, because no one uses it! Well actually I do, and it's great!
