Hi everyone!
I notice that windows System Restore has been mentioned on this list.
Its up to each and every user as to what they put on their machine but
it seems foolish to me to have a utility such as System Restore that
only does "half a job" when "if a job's worth doing then its worth
doing well", <smile> in other words if your system breaks then why
have software (which isn't too accessible (or wasn't too accessible
last time I looked at it)) which only does half a restoration job, in
other words System Restore only restores what it thinks worth restoring.
The other point to all this is that you need to get Windows up and
running in the first place and if you can't? Well Windows Restore is
of no use to you whatever <smile>.
I've been using Rollback here for about 3 years now and it has a
number of advantages over System restore, the main and obvious being
that you can use it to "rollback" your system before Windows boots, it
has full keyboard command and you can get it up and running by
pressing the "home" key after you hear the beep on your computer when
you start it but I won't go into all the details here, if anyone wants
them then email me privately.
Secondly, you choose what to save or set up criteria for Rollback to
automatically "take snapshots" of your system, unlike Goback or
anything else this software doesn't sacrefice a little of your
computers performance.
And most importantly, all functions of Rollback can be accessed, from
the simple "Take/restore Snapshot' in the "system tray" to a whole
host of options in the Rollback software itself.
