I own a copy of Terrabyte's Unlimited Image for Windows. I'm really really curious.
Let's say that I make a complete system backup snapshot on a set of DVD's from my copy of Image for Windows. And, further, let's say I do this after activating JAWS 15. Now, say down the road something happens and I wind up having a pc crash. I totally get that I'd lose an activation tokan, but if it became a problem, within reason, FS would let me reset my activations. I'm totally aware of that, as long as I don't obviously make a habbit of it, which of corse, I wouldn't. I mean come on, it's nbot like my pc's gonna crash every few months, god forbid. I heard however somewhere that yeah, obviously, I'd have a new machine ID, which is what the ILM is based on, thus, would have to reactivate, provided I installed Windows again manually. However, I heard somewhere that being this DVD set I made with Image for Windows is an exact! down to a T! 100% exact! image of my system at the state when I did the backup, it will then restore all the backed up partitions, all the soft ware, all the licenses, all the registry keys, all my files and folders, all my configuration settings, etc. Basically, it would be as if I'd never crashed to start with. I've found this to be very very true to the promise, but I never really have known with JFW how that would work out. Someone told me that yes! It would restore the previous activation, seeing that when imaged, it already was activated, so as far as JFW thinks... there is no reason to activate. It's already been done. With that said, would this work, or do you still think even though it's an exact image, I'd still lose my activation. I know in the past, from what little I recall, it did! also restore the license, but I just want to check for confirmation. No, my system isn't having any issues, thank God, I'm just asking more for informational purpose mainly. Any ideas?
