I've searched for hours and cannot find a straight answer to this question: What is the difference between Windows Easy Transfer and Back Up/Restore in Windows 7? I have an RC version of Windows 7, and will need to upgrade soon. I want to be able to transfer all my applications, files, and programs to the freshly installed RTM version. Since I'm still a week or two away from receiving my RTM copy of Windows 7, does it make sense to run a back up on the RC version, and then just hit "restore" when I cleanly install the RTM version? I just don't understand what the WET does that the Restore function wouldn't do? When you hit "restore" or use "WET," will all the desktop backgrounds and settings remain the same, or does W7 just throw everything from the backed up computer into a new folder, leaving the user to figure out how to organize the information?
Additionally, in Win 7, is there a way to set Back up/Restore to save every single version of a Word document onto an external drive (like in Mac's Time Machine). I'm a writer, and I want to make sure that every auto-saved version (literally 50-60 versions per hour at a 1/min save rate) is backed up. Is this possible?
