    Hello everyone,

    i m having some issues with my alienware 15 on Windows 8.1 during booting or Turning off. Reinstalling Windows 8.1, 4 times already and no solutions.

    So i would like to try Windows 10, but is this going to erase all partitions (recovery AlienRespawn) on my SSD ? I would like to keep the opportunity to come back to Windows 8.1 easely with AlienRespawn.

    thank you :)

    You could use a tool like Acronis true image home to make an image of the partitions. You would need a place like an external hard drive to back up this said image to. This can do exactly what you are describing.
