<description><![CDATA[Regarding compression, the compression used is Snappy, though GZip and QuickLZ may also be used. In addition to that, LZF and LZMA are also available, but are not referenced.

The backup jobs database and saved passwords are protected using AES, but don't count on it being secure because the program encrypts them with the default key and IV.

If you don't like the GUI, you can always make your own, or integrate the program into your own little utility. Reference Backup.Api.dll in your program using .NET 4.0 and you'll have access to the core backup/restore libraries.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[@25.300knowhow — Your comment was not as 'useless' as mine - perhaps you did not try hard enuf... Here's my point (if u kud careless): IF YOU LOSE YOUR STUFF AND YOUR 'BACKUP' FAILS WHAT THEN 'knowhow'? What then? Indeed, what then? (PS: case anybody cares: you may want to upgrade this save-your-livelihood-even-your-life-software - SEE: Nothing Is Free...)

@23.Me -
- "rival company"? no... retired, haven't programmed since DOS and OS2...
- "spelling and grammer challenged"? yes... did not finish 10th grade (yes GED)
- "stupid"?  sometimes...
- "cruel"?  not to those who aren't cruel to me first...

RE: my 'comment(s)' - i 'attack' the product (or the producer) AND you attack me? i DID make a comment re this item that did NOT 'come-big-or-don't-come' successfully imho. Did i go thru spellchecker too fast? i hope you, et al, install this product too fast... 

Disrespectfully,

(Almost) NOTHING is (unintentionally) misspelled in my submission (yes, i missed the double "ii" - big deal - if my submission was an ad i think i would have caught it - especially since i would not use the wording it hid in) (u gonna gig me 4 the missing period?)

@19.Ronaldr_Perth - please read the preceding... and then: IF i GO TO THE SHED FOR A RAKE - IT BETTER HAVE TINES!!! This "software" does not muster up to even consideration imltho (in my less than humble opinion) - BUT i LEFT THAT PART OFF for benefit of others - even you... i thoroughly agree that some should TEST and evaluate the GOTDs (perhaps in sandboxes...).   my comment is for the "authors" and i submitted it QUICKLY so that other naysayers could just skip their comments.  ((What i did not expect was Whiterabbit-uk getting a difference of 150+- "points" - that's AMAZING...))


BTW: i did find your comment useful - thank you...

<description><![CDATA[When I first ran backup, I tried to password protect but it would not let me proceed to next screen. So, I proceeded without a password. Now that I have created a backup, I cannot find the option to add password protection. What am I missing here? 

Other than that, I like it so far.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Every ngen image in order to  MUST have the ngen service enabled NOT disabled….

edit: to compile of cause

then the service stops at next reboot 

also if you disable ngen service any installation of other software that compiles MSIL down to native code during software installation will give you an installation error.

As ngen is well managed by the .net framework you don't need to mess with it. Keep it as is. It's all OK as it is.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[@ 44 Stefan 

NGEN needs a little more detail here that users know what it is.
So, I will do that.

NGEN is part of the .Net SDK (Software Development Kit) to create a native image of intermediate language code. So, what happens is that the .net exe is compiled to native code before JIT compilation instead during JIT and thus makes a .Net executable run like native code with a slight performance increase. Every ngen image in order to run MUST have the ngen service enabled NOT disabled....

hope that helps
cheers]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Someone from AbelsSoft (Sven?  Hi!) wrote in above saying this program backs up active files and can make a boot CD to recover from (to a new blank hard drive?).

Cool, if true.

But how do we access, say, a backed up MS Outlook PST in the backup set?

Also, the program does NOT offer to make a bootable backup CD -- how would I do this?

Answer: click [ Emergency Backup ] in the top right menu strip to download a CD image ... which promises to empower making 1:1 images from HD to CD.

So, does that mean I can only do 1:1 AFTER booting from the CD, or can I make a CD 1:1 backup image from Windows live within the program?  

Answer: you MUST reboot from CD to make 1:1 backup HD to CD snapshot sets -- can't be done in background while using the computer.

Should I try and get back to you all?  

Well, it downloaded, then failed to write a CD (wrong ISO writer found), so I exited the program to see if I could burn the ISO file myself ... and the program had erased it as if it were a dispensable temp file(!) ... so I'm re-downloading the ISO file AGAIN, argh!

Painful!

It would ne a neat utility feature, but hardly something I could recommend to customers: "... close everything, reboot from CD, then run a stack of blank CDs to copy the hard drive in 700 MB increments, hope it all works, then reboot to the hard drive, save the CDs, and remember to do it again whenever you change anything important, making the first stack of CDs an ob$elete wa$te of time and money ..." 

Argh!

Note: I deleted my first backup (test to second hard drive directory), but the program thinks it still exists!

Svwen -- anybody -- I want:

(a) the backup to LOOK like the original file structure, visible and usable in Windows Explorer, and with anything such as in MS Word [ File &gt; Open ...], 

and 

(b) to copy long file- and directory-names, and active files.

That's it.

Simple, no?

Apparently impossible!

PS -- Sven, I do LOVE so much of your other programming at http://www.abelssoft.net/ and I recommend it often and enthusiastically.]]></description>
