It worked and I got back to where I was after a night of updates etc. I tried many solutions but none worked and had to go to a 2.5 year old image from when I first got Windows 10. I have done that numerous times with no problems, but this one gave me a 0x80070057 error. I recently had a problem with Windows Defender and tried to restore a Windows created image from a few months ago. The Pro uses true MLC memory, whereas the Evo uses TLC (branded as 3 bit MLC) and Samsung states to overcome the lower endurance of the EVO drives' memory, it reserves space on them but I find no similar disclosure for the Pros, so I assume none is reserved. I know the Evo is - it is an advertised 250 GB drive that has 256 capacity with Samsung stating that 6GB is fully reserved.

I am not sure if the 860 Pro is over provisioned.
