I've never backed anything up aside from dragging it to an external drive.

I'm ready to quit living on the edge but the popular backup options aren't what im looking for. they seem to be all about Windows repairs and fitting on a 16gb drive.. I want everything backed up. I want a file I can load from an external HD (it will be under 2tb always, right now its about 500GB) in the future that will give me my entire computer as it was on August 30, 2017. I don't want to reconfigure anything. I want classic shell setup, my Steam games, and even my video card drivers. Everything. Can someone recommend the easy way to do this?
