Backupper ***May*** hog a lot of disk space... I can't explain it, with the program's folder reporting 373MB with 696 files, 51 folders. Nonetheless, it increases the size of a VM on a fully compacted VHD by about 3GB (!). [The VHD is the Virtual Hard Disk where the VM's OS & software are stored -- a compacted VHD has all free space removed, so the VHD file's size reflects the actual amount of data stored.]
As in the past, the bootable USB sticks you can create in Backupper & Partition Assistant will not work with secure boot enabled. Sure you can turn secure boot off, but why should you have to? It requires going into the BIOS setup and changing things, and someone less experienced can make a mistake that breaks their device. It can be difficult to get into the BIOS setup itself, and it may take 2 separate steps to get secure boot re-enabled afterward. It might also involve some risk: malware tends to be opportunistic, taking advantage where it can, while always being on the lookout for additional opportunities, like secure boot being disabled. The previous fix still works, though the Partition Assistant process to create a bootable USB stick *may* be problematic.
You get a hint of that when the 1st step in the process is a tip that you might want to create a Windows To Go drive instead. Unlike Backupper there is no provision in this version to download and use WinPE from Microsoft, which means the Recovery partition must be in working order, which is not always the case. [If you want to see if the Recovery partition is set up in Windows open the command prompt & type reagentc /info and then press Enter.] It also took me 2 tries to get a working USB stick -- the first try booted into Windows Recovery screen.
Anyway, to fix the USB sticks I’ve found that you need to make a copy of C:\Windows\ Boot\ EFI\ bootmgfw.efi, rename that copy bootx64.efi, and use it to replace the copy on the USB stick you create with Backupper &/or Partition Assitant in [X]:\EFI\BOOT\, where [X] = the drive letter for your USB stick.

I haven't had cause to try MyRecover to see how well it works [or doesn't], but I did find something very odd: it won't work, instantly freezing up on this copy of Win11. I have no idea why. I did a very quick bit of troubleshooting but failed to find an answer, and then let it go since I'd only use the app with my Windows To Go drive where it seems to work fine.

DoYourData Super Eraser & Magoshare AweEraser [from the 2nd giveaway pack] look like they're basically the same, perhaps using the same base code. And both add odd files to the Windows folder: dydsex64setup.exe & dydsex86setup.exe for Super Eraser -- mssex64setup.exe & mssex86setup.exe for AweEraser. None of these executable files appear to do anything when run from File Explorer or the command prompt, but they are executable [program] files, so out of an abundance of caution [as the saying goes] I renamed them and moved them into the respective program folders. Both apps seem fine without them, and if I later have a problem I can put things back.
