Installatioin proved hopeless
I tried once but despite reading the comments above and riunning setup first when I ran the programme it was still a 30 day trial version and help/about did NOT say givewawayoftheday. I then tried reinstalling but it insisted even after a reboot that sometjhing else was using the program it was lying so I gave up in disgust

For those looking for a disk image freeware, try Clonezilla (available at: http://www.clonezilla.org/). Clonezilla works flawlessly on vista, images a 45 G hard drive in 50-60 minutes and restores it in 30 minutes.

Clonezilla download link: http://www.clonezilla.org/download/sourceforge/.

BTW, comment #8’s DriverMax link leads to V.2.4. However, new version V.4.3 is available already: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/DriverMax.shtml .

FYI.

I figured out why so many are having problems registering. When you close the window it is actually still running in your systray, so make sure that you do a File>Exit. Then run or rerun the activate and then reopen the software and it will show properly under About as registered.

THANK YOU, thank you, thank you # 29.

I too was going nuts trying to get the program to go from trial to non-trial; I tried everything I could think of. When I killed the program (or ended it) in my task manager like you suggested and then re-opened the GOTD offer, it then said it was registered to GiveawayoftheDay!

You need to rerun Insofta Document Backup 4.1 as it has no regestration code. Thanks giveawayoftheday.com for the great programs.

In response to Post #30: To backup your Outlook files, try either EazyBackup or Outback Plus from AJSystems: http://ajsystems.com/
Not free, but excellent software.

I’ve been using Macrium Reflect, a previous Giveaway by GAOTD. It can backup whole partitions, so it is a more complete tool than this one, but this takes a lot of space. Of course, like this tool MR can still backup documents too, but this seems to be a very slow operation.

Can someone share their expiriences with this program? It would be good to make a comparision.

I have tried for the past 6 hours to get this program to make a backup via FTP to my web server to no avail.

Anyone else getting this to work?

I have been running Retrospect, which has failed to back up correctly for a couple of weeks, and I could not work out how to get in the backup without the program.

I installed this, and ended up with a 56GB zip file. I successfully restored a file with ease through the program.

AND I went through 7-zip and was able to locate and open the files inside it. So I don’t need the program to restore.

Great program. Thank you.

Instructions in no. 2 work like a charm.
