I've tried Image for Windows in the past. Nice program but slow compared to RollBack RX. Taking a snapshot with RollBack RX takes only a few seconds. I don't remember exactly the time Image for Windows use but it's for sure much slower. Image for Windows is as the name implies a imaging tool and RollBack RX is not so I Guess that is the reason why Image for Windows is slower.
I have installed RollBack RX now and I'm impressed so far. Lightning fast when I tell it to make a snapshot. I have not tried restore yet though. I'm using a SSD disk so I don't care about defragmenting it anyway <smile> -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Gordon Smith Sent: 11. august 2012 14:57 To: Techno-Chat ... Technology Enthusiasm! Subject: Re: RollBack RX not sure whether I answered this or not. Rollback RX is fully accessible. It news to be configured properly, the default configuration is absolutely crazy in my opinion. I personally have mine set to only take snapshots when I specify. That been the case I do a snapshot before I install any software. That way I find it works fine for me. I'm also going to install "Image for Windows" when I get around to it. That is another accessible backup utility. The major issue with RollBack RX is that you cannot use disk defragmentation software with it running. It's too much hassle to disable it totally, so I just don't bother.

I know that you Gordon are using RollBack RX from Horizon Datasys and I have read about it. It looks very interesting. I understand that it takes a snapshot (bit-level) which is very nice and what I'm looking for. But I have a few questions: I assume RollBack RX is fully accessible? Both installation, configuration and the restore process? What if ones system is not booting or just showing the BSOD?
