Format Backup Disk
SKIP I figured out the problem with using a previous image backup disk - see below. I didn't reformat.
When I tried to use existing NTFS image backup drive, I got an access denied error. I couldn't trace it down so I decided to reformat the backup drive.
Chose exFAT so it will work well across platforms
Steps
- Windows key + X
- Right-click the E: drive partition
- Selected exFAT format
- Ok
- I think I got an "in use" error and realized that it was cause by exploring the disk earlier. I abort and rebooted.
