• Satellite P870 - simple image backup & restore software required

  Does anyone know of software single disc to backup and restore the C: drive, including the operating system and all imagery files.

  I used to use BartPE which had the shell of Windows XP on CD and booted from the CD and allowed an image must be restored. It didn't matter if the PC OS was broken was a simple operating system on the CD more Norton Ghost 8.

  My Satellite P870 can only boot from USB (selected in the BIOS) and I couldn't get my BartPE to boot from a USB key. Similarly, I installed the software Imaging Odin but is not boot from USB either, but I can run from Explorer (but is based on Windows 8 loading correctly).

  I also downloaded free data recovery Paragon, but it wants to install the program on the laptop. I want a purely mobile car/image copy of program.

  How about "regardless of your operating system, system files and the schema partition, by the creation of a bootable CD, it can copy sector-by-sector you drive to ensure an identical copy of 100% of the original."

  And it's free

  Just took good note of your remark on starting - Your P870 boot not the optical drive?

After it has been completed, I started the system of the HD and everything seemed OK. All the photos, music and videos stored under my username were there.

  However the recorded TV stored under the Public user ID was absent. Anyone have any ideas? The system image backup has no setting to include or exclude files or directories.

• Detail of computer Vista Business 32 lost in hurricane. How can I reinstall and activate Vista to the new computer and use the backup image to restore files and programs on the new computer?

  Home built computer with Vista installed detail. I always have backups who intend to reinstall on the machine even if the HDD or MB went bad. Full image backup was on the hard drive of withdrawal which do not damaged. Never planned to lose computer any wave of sandstorm. I reinstalled on the same computer successfully before but never tried to migrate to a new computer.  Cannot uninstall Vista from your old computer, because it was submerged in salt water and died. I am not very well informed, but I can follow directions.  Thank you.

  You don't have to worry about uninstall on the destroyed computer, because it is not usable.

  And no message is sent when you uninstall any computer anyway.

  When you perform the Activation on the new computer, if you have problems of activation to the phone option I have included and do not take the road to auto answer, but brace yourself for a real person to talk to you.

  Then you can explain what happened.

• Windows7 System Image backup

  I just want to know what type of device, I should use to make a system image backup.  My computer is for home use only (I am retired and use it for email, research and banking).    I have a 146 GB hd with 103 GB free.  Know me I use 43 GB of space for everything, right?   I made the mistake to go to Best Buy, I was told to get an external hard drive 500 GB.  I would use a flashdrive if possible and I thought a 128 GB should do OR the old way of burning on DVD mode, I need to know what I have to reformat to NTFS DVD (each first) before you can begin the backup? and who is the best to get.  Best Buy was not helpful at all, no one on the floor could answer my questions, stood in line for 45 minutes and that's when I said to buy a 500 GB HD.

  Thanks to all those who can help you.

  Dear Frederik

  Thank you for taking the time and address my concerns.  However, I have just one more question.  Why would I need an external hard drive 500 GB, the one I have is 146 GB with 103 GB free. I would only use a lot of space in what remains of my life (72).   Just use my PC at home to society and personal things.

  A 500 GB drive comes in handy for several reasons:

  • You can store several images on it, for example before leaving for the upgrade of Windows 10 (if that's what you have in mind) and after the upgrade. You would hold the image of Windows 7 a few months in case you want to go back. Note that Windows (as opposed to third-party tools), it is difficult for you to store two different images and separating them.
  • You must use the disk for your regular data backups. If you are not in the habit of saving your data regularly so it's a great time!

  Also note that an image not tested backup is pretty useless, as it is an untested backup.

• Windows Backup & restore leaves gaps in the backup period date ranges

  I noticed that backup & restore leaves gaps in the date ranges displayed on the screen of backup periods under the function to manage the space.  This means that files change during the interval periods have not been saved?  For example, the screen shows currently backups and the following periods:

  Jan 26: 12-18 Mar, 12 GB 10.40

  Apr 04, 12-13 Apr, 12 GB 19.62

  27 April, 12-27 Apr, 12 GB 05.16

  May 06,12 - May 06,12 02.41 GB

  May 27.12 - 17 Jun, 12 GB 03.41

  What is the importance of gaps?

  How can I tell that B & R is fully backup all files that changed since the last backup run?

  How can I varify the 1st backup is a backup full?

  How can I varify that the system image backup is up-to-date?

  I save approximately once a week to a USB external hard drive. I use options "Include a system image" and "Let me choose" to select the files and have selected the option 'keep only the last frame system & minimize the space used '.

  Hello

  Backups are created in sets called backup periods. To maximize your disk space, Windows backup backup all folders selected, the first time it's run and then it only backs up files that are new or have been modified since the last backup was made. Periodically, Windows creates a new, full backup. Each full backup is called in a backup. When you view your backups of files, you can see all the backup periods with date ranges. If you decide to delete backups of files, you should always keep the most recent backup of the file.

• iPhone 6 s - 100% carbon copy backup/restore to iTunes - is that possible?

  Hello

  I am trying to find a way to save/restore an iPhone via iTunes installation so that the restoration of places any return on the phone with the same configuration (essentially, an exact clone of the original installation that is being backed up).

  Questions that I met with attempts to use iTunes for backup/restore:

  • Passwords and other security information do not restore.
  • Applications not getting restored
  • WIFI networks not get restored
  • attached randomly do not restore (some, not all).

  iCloud backups solve this problem (sort of).

  • It takes an internet connection takes too long and medium, and you are left without a phone can be used for a period of time, so that the restore process is complete. I'd rather do it via iTunes.
  • Passwords and other security information do not restore.

  Any help please? In the end, I'm looking for a way to backup my phone to a PC and restore it so it looks identical to how it did before the backup.

  For a long time (perhaps in the iPhone 4/5 days?) this process described above works, 100%. Apple changed something in recent years.

  Thank you

  Bob

  The backup does not contain music or apps, because they should be in the media library iTunes on your computer, and if you synchronize right after that the restoration of the backup is then reinstalled. Normally this is done automatically when you perform a restore if you not to interrupt.

  Passwords and health data are only saved if you choose encrypted backup.

  There is no way to make a backup "image" of the phone, but if you use Encrypted and let run until the end, that it will restore everything the way it was.

• a114 450: too long system image backup

  Creating a disc image external hard took more than 8 hours.  Something doesn't seem right.

  John067

  YES - it's a CRAZY time!  I regularly backup of complete systems for external drives and the Longest none of them take an hour - and it's for an old and 2-wire machine with 120 GB of space used on the drive!

  On the other hand, my Win10 PC backups, which usually just 40 GB of space, or less, take 5-10 minutes at most.

  I learned the hard way, do NOT trust all the integrated backup/restore systems - in particular those provided by Microsoft.

  What I recommend is the following:
  (1) download and install Macrium reflect (MR). This provides a FREE version that can be used to image and restore partitions or drives together.
  (2) run M. and choose the option: "Create an image of the partition (s) required to backup and restore Windows" to write a full backup to an external drive or USB key
  (3) use the option to create a CD or a USB startup key
  
  I use all the time and it usually takes less than 10 minutes to make the backup of the image and at the same time or less do a restore.  In addition, MR has the ability to add a recovery Boot Menu entry.  This then allows you to boot into Windows re, and then you can use it to do a restore - when you cannot start Windows!
  
  NOW, you have the means to restore a full system that works for the external hard drive or USB key in a few minutes.

  Good luck

• Windows 7 backup system Image - 0x8078012D error Code - fails to complete system image backup?

  I seem to have a problem with the Windows backup when a scheduled backup image on a hard drive external fails to finish, although she worked successfully before many times.  Backup Windows reports an error code of 0x8078012D.

  I ran the tool of error checking on the external hard drive with running repair options, but no problem discovered.  The external disk drive seems ok because I use a Norton program to back up data on the same drive with no problems.  Also Windows backup will happily make a 'non-system image' backup on the external drive.

  But it is not an image of the system stand alone, or as an add on the a normal backup.

  Any advice?

  Thank you
  David

  After many tests on the solutions listed here, I found a way to fix my problem. I had continually failure is to say the system could not create a snapshot or that my drive has been a failure. It seems, with Windows 7, you must configure options that are not obvious to the users.

  1. go to control panel/system/System Protection and select your C: drive.

  2. Select "set up" and make sure "Restore system settings and previous versions of files" is on.

  3. the Max use value at least 2%

  4. apply

  5. Select your key USB you will use for backup and configure it again to the protection and the whole file size of at least 18%.

  6. apply

  7. in the control panel go to administrative tools, open Services.

  8 scroll down until Windows backup and make sure it is set to manual and not started.

  9. highlight Volume Shadow and make sure it is also set to manual and not started.

  10 10 aller go to control panel, select backup and restore.

  11. click on "Change settings", and then select the drive you will support up to.

  12 run backup let the system do its thing and everything should work.

• Windows 7 Image Backup - where can I find the previous image after new backup?

  My previous hard drive died, and I replaced it.

  Good news: I did a backup of the system before the death of completed HDD.  The image is under "WindowsImageBackup" folder on my external drive.

  Then I replaced the HARD drive, picked up at the factory reset.

  Before restoring the image backup, I took a step extra stupid: I thought that I should save its current state before as I have restore the previous state in case any thing wrong, so I started to sign--> system and security--> backup and restore--> backup now

  Bad news: the new backup image sub-folder of "WindowsImageBackup" even erased my previous image!  They have different timestamps, so different names, but the previous image has disappeared after a new creation.  In fact, I killed the new backup process immediately after that I was disappearing from the previous image.  He has not finished, but I can't find my previous image!

  BTW, there is a lot of space on my drive.  It is only 20% used!

  Are there ways I can retrieve my previous image?

  BTW, I use Windows 7 Home Premium.  By default, all parameters are as I do factory reset.

  Suggestions and help is very appreciated!

  Hello

  With the publication of the description, I understand that you have accidentally deleted the system image backup file. I've certainly you will help answer your query.

  I wish to inform you that there is no way to get the previous system back image - which has already been replaced however, you can try a few steps to get the old image to the top, although there is no guarantee that it will work but still, you can try and see if it helps.

  First of all, I suggest you to rename the WindowsImageBackup to WindowsImageBackup. Old then follow the screenshot and select the option highlighted in yellow color select another backup to restore files of.

  

  Hope that this help, please write us back for any further assistance on this point, we will be happy to help you further.
