then if things go bad, reinstall takes about 20 minutes on my single core CPU and old HDD, then i restore applications, the settings, and i am done. you can also add a script to backup a list of programs for a possible OS reinstall. in linux you need to backup your file and settings. edit - not ready for prime time yet but I'll keep it in mind.Īreca is good for incremental backups. I had a catastrophic last night and had to restore the entire SSD using a recovery program on a bootable USB stick. just create shortcut/launcher to the game and you are done. home/kris/snap/gog-galaxy-wine/common/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/GOG Galaxy/Games/ArxFatalis, open a terminal and do

More on GOG Galaxy: I found that though it says it can't install something and throws an E2 error, it has indeed installed the app. You'll then play a much harder catch up game. Are you gonna quit computers for good when that time comes? Likely not. Sooner than later you won't have the option to do Legacy installations IMO that should have been removed at least 6 years ago.
#GOG GALAXY WONT INSTALL UPDATE#
You're doing yourself a real disservice by refusing to update your knowledge about UEFI. Now ask all the other users who want to proper install in UEFI mode how they feel about their Rufus made USB media NOT booting because they didn't know or forgot to change those anachronistic default settings. And "RUFUS always works" maybe true for you because " also avoid the UEFI/GPT thing" so Rufus' default settings (BIOS/MBR) surely work. Maybe success, maybe not" is certainly not a problem with those tools because almost everybody else uses them successfully. So I try to flash it with something else. That said, "I test boot it and it doesn't work. My question was because I didn't know how passionate you were regarding those things. I was just asking, absolutely no intention to start a discussion whatsoever. When it doesn't I delete the offending opsys (that's where win10 went LOL.) I do not serve my system! My system exists to serve me. I may need to pop in a drive that it has never seen and use it for an offsite backup at any given moment and not have to worry about permissions or formatting whatever. I work on a live system - that is, it CHANGES. That is why I also avoid the UEFI/GPT thing - again, btdt - wasted many many many days trying to find folks to help me to get it to work when it wouldn't do one thing or another. I use what works for me and saves me time. I can't be bothered plugging in a nix live boot and booting it just to access some file on an ext4 partition. I know better than to delete it! My backups, my history is on NTFS.
#GOG GALAXY WONT INSTALL WINDOWS#
So what if I have to spend a minute booting windows and using it.

Again, my experience has been : RUFUS always works.
#GOG GALAXY WONT INSTALL ISO#
My experience has been : I come up with an iso and I use something on nix to flash it to a stick. If I make a bunch of changes and get things working, I just go to win and do another Macrium image. Macrium is too easy - any time I want I can restore the entire SSD with its mix of partitions. In the past I used Clonezilla extensively as I kept changing the linux build, but I am done with that. I know there are things available to backup/sync a linux system but none play nice with NTFS and none allow me to explore NTFS file by file to see what's there. Same with the Macrium backups - I can explore and recover just a single file if I wish. (this laptop is simple ONLY because it ONLY has an Intel video chip.) Linux still does not play nice with changing video cards and drivers. Or back when I had boxes that had Nvidia cards I would wind up with a zombie system when trying to boot it to use just the Intel video driver(like when I actually fried a 650TS). Because I have, in the past, always run into linux shortcomings and have abandoned it.

It is only sometimes that I also have a linux system. Why? because over the years I always have had a windows system available. My stuff (logs etc) for doing Ubuntu is all on NTFS.
#GOG GALAXY WONT INSTALL HOW TO#
People like me tend to forget how to do the MS font install after a year!!! or how to install the Europe drivers for my Canon printer.).īecause it is windows, I can click on the backup, browse and select individual files, and restore it. I have a very old Easeus (doesn't play nice with linux) backup that just a week ago I grabbed something from it in prep for trying Ubuntu again(I have a 7 page log that I create when I do an Ubuntu install, and that I use and update when I do the next install. I seem to have to defend this every time I mention it.
