Anyway, to get sha-2 I had to do another update but then the sha-2 update bombed on reboot and keeps reverting to 'uninstalled'. Still I managed to INITIATE a Macrium install before rebooting but could never complete it. It never ends for crissssake!

Unless they removed it, the link I gave you was for a free version
of Macrium. You didn't have to buy it. For example, if you had
a Win7 32-bit as your daily driver OS, you could install the
second link here if you wanted. The filename is reflect-setup-FREE...

The three artwork links, correspond to the usage of this software.

   https://download.macrium.com/reflect/v7/v7.3.6284/reflect_setup_free_x64.exe

   Name: reflect_setup_free_x64.exe
   Size: 115,719,576 bytes (110 MiB)
   SHA1: B6724C7B6F5AF146406FAAA78F845A6C281D67D8

   There is also a 32-bit one. For 32-bit setups.

   https://download.macrium.com/reflect/v7/v7.3.6284/reflect_setup_free_x86.exe

Use the three artwork links, for details as to how to fill out the dialogs.

The 64-bit one, and Rufus, should be able to make a UEFI boot
stick. The 32-bit one looks a bit more of an issue that way.
