      I wanted to make a backup of my SD card just as it is, so I don't have to go through another long setup process that I've done recently. In my research, I found that using Win32DiskImager should easily accomplish this. However, I run into problems when I get there.

      On my Windows 7 desktop, it gives me an error, stating it can't find readable data. On my Windows 10 laptop, it sees two disc images on the card (both kernel), but it also gives an error that the data is not readable/not there.

      This was done on a brand new SD card, flashed and full reformatted before I used it. So I find it hard to believe it's suddenly corrupt. Any ideas why I'm running into these issues?
