I had to set mine (win32 diskimager) to "run as administrator" for it to launch correctly.

Windows programs are like the "ladies who lunch"...

Seconding Etcher. It's really easy to use.

If anyone using XP (like my old pc, no money to buy new), latest win32disk is 0.9

RPi 3 is faster than my PC (single core, 512mb)

I could run XP, but chose not to . I have a free MSDN subscription so I can run any Windows OS I want, assuming my hardware will run it. I like Windows 10 so that's what I run. My desktop PC's are getting old, not that old though.

Etcher does not work to make backups and SD, but only to write it if you already have an image.
Win32DiskImager doesn't work for me even if I start it as an administrator.

This is an ancient thread. Probably best if you have issues (although Win32diskimager is rather old now) to start a new thread.
