Use wins32 disk imager to make an image (note: read is greyed out at first, create a name with .img extension for your backup first). Click read and it will create an image file (do not click write). https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=26463
Just installed pi os with noobs (Raspian v2.8 Nov2018), surprised that node red was preinstalled (nodered version 0.19.4).
The sd on one of my pi 3 was corrupted, was working before (24/7), I guess that must be too much rw for the sd. Good opportunity to reinstall from scratch the pi os, as so many changes since I last updated. Note the lastest version (V2.5, Nov18) , means you have to install node red manually (more later).
