Technically we were second-hand smokers, so....

I'd suggest created an image of the machine once it's setup, they will probably get viruses downloading mods for minecraft, or trying to download cheats for cod

Yeah an image backup should be done
Regardless of whether it's a child's or adults pc
Reinstalling windows is pretty quick
It's all the other software And stuff that takes time
With solid state drives you can reload the image
Before you even get back to the pc
With a cup of tea

Which free image software would you recommend. I think I remember using Reflect years ago but it seems there’s no free version any more.

You can still find the free version
Just won't get any updates for it in future
One of the forum members was hosting it in
Useful software section last time I looked in there
Though can probably find it using Google too
