As for Ocster's uninstaller not uninstalling the Visual C++ redistributables, if they don't show up in the Control Panel's Uninstall Programs list, you can simply do a System Restore, as all Microsoft installations set a System Restore Point. WinZip doesn't use the Volume Shadow-Copy Service, Ocster does. Zip solutions require far more working space. Ocster doesn't keep the backup files in a database, they're individual files, so only changed ones are overwritten. However, that's what I don't like about Ocster. It uses the Volume Shadow-Copy Service, it does compression and encryption, and it can automatically resume if interrupted, even after a reboot. However, it doesn't keep true incremental backups, you just wind up with the latest composite backup, so in other respects, it functions like a file synchronizer, not a backup application. For the price and features, Ocster Backup Pro 3 is terrible compared to Acronis True Image Home 2010. Note that the Plus Pack is available for free with purchase for a few more days. Note also that Acronis Online Backup gives you far more storage for less money, and it's also on sale for a short time. The main thing that I don't like about Acronis is that it doesn't support RAID. There are also file and document-revision trackers, like FileHamster. There is a free version, but otherwise, it's expensive compared to Acronis Nonstop Backup.]]> Fri, 05 Feb 2010 05:20:17 -0500 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocster-backup-pro-3/#comment-108570 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocster-backup-pro-3/#comment-108569 Fri, 05 Feb 2010 00:52:38 -0500 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocster-backup-pro-3/#comment-108569 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocster-backup-pro-3/#comment-108568 get your files backed up (with cb's basic settings).]]> Fri, 05 Feb 2010 00:20:01 -0500 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocster-backup-pro-3/#comment-108568 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocster-backup-pro-3/#comment-108567 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 21:43:29 -0500 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocster-backup-pro-3/#comment-108567 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocster-backup-pro-3/#comment-108566 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 21:40:38 -0500 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocster-backup-pro-3/#comment-108566 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocster-backup-pro-3/#comment-108565 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 21:31:05 -0500 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocster-backup-pro-3/#comment-108565
