As we mentioned in earlier posts, the updated version of the Windows 10 20H1 θα διαθέτει το χαρακτηριστικό “Cloud Download”. Η νέα λειτουργία θα κατεβάζει τα τελευταία archives of Windows from Microsoft and will use them to reinstall Windows.
Microsoft's Aaron Lower explains exactly how Cloud Download will work.
In one Publication on Microsoft's Windows Insider blog, Lower reports on the history of the built-in Windows 10 recovery options, and explains how Windows 10's built-in Cloud Download will work:
Η επόμενη σημαντική βελτίωση των Windows 10 είναι στο “imageless” recovery. Αυτό γίνεται με την construction ενός νέου αντιγράφου των Windows από την υπάρχουσα εγκατάσταση. Επειδή αυτή η προσέγγιση δεν χρησιμοποιεί κάποιο ISO ανάκτησης, εξοικονομεί χώρο στο δίσκο και διατηρεί τις τελευταίες updates security. Older approaches took more than 45 minutes and may not always repair Windows if the installation is in very bad shape or is very corrupted.
This is where Cloud Download comes.
In addition to requiring extra time and a Windows installation, the ability to recover without an ISO is another problem: If you haven't installed the latest Windows updates, you'll need to reinstall them after the system has been reinstalled.
The new Cloud Download feature avoids these disadvantages. Instead of using all the files that your hard drive needs, Windows can download the latest Windows installation files from Microsoft servers.
This will get you the latest files, so no major updates will be required after reinstalling Windows. It's just like creating a USB drive with the latest version of Windows 10 and reinstalling it, but you don't have to worry about creating media.
To use this feature in the Windows 10 20H1 - which is under development, go to Settings> Update & Security> Recovery and click "Getting Started" in the Settings - Update & Security - Recovery section of this computer. and click on “Get Started” under Reset This PC).
After you choose to keep your files or remove everything from your computer, you can choose “Cloud Download” to download the installation files from Microsoft servers or “Local Reinstall” to use the local files on your system. .
What happens during the restore process:
Windows will download the files it needs and then restart in Windows RE (Windows Recovery Environment), the Windows recovery environment. The installation process will bring together all the drivers from your current Windows system, ensuring that your hardware will continue to work.
It will also “Apply the OEM customizations, along with thecase των προεγκατεστημένων εφαρμογών των Windows”, οπότε μάλλον θα δείτε όλα τα bloatware programs που έχει εγκαταστήσει ο κατασκευαστής σας στον υπολογιστή σας. Μπορεί να χρειαστείτε τη λειτουργία Fresh start for this (Settings – Update & Security – Recovery and click on “Learn how to start fresh with a clean installation of Windows”).
Cloud Download will also be available in the recovery environment that appears if you cannot start your computer. You will be able to use the "Restore this computer" feature to download new files from Microsoft and reinstalling Windows, even if Windows is corrupted and cannot start.
Lower states that the wireless connecting to the recovery environment can be a problem and it depends on whether the computer manufacturer loads the drivers that can enable it or not.
