RAMA S, Unfortunately, the product is not available in the 32-bit version. Only the full version Paragon Hard Disk Manager™ 17 Advanced is available in 32-bit.

technics, There is no option to select a drive during the installation. Due to the program's specifics, it should be installed on the system drive only.

Amen, I could not download the software as I got a 404 error every time I clicked the download link that was emailed to me.

geargrinder, Please contact Paragon Support Team at support@paragon-software.com to receive help with the installation process.

Viktor, I do not think this was not a issue with Paragon. I think giveawayoftheday was sending a bad link.
When I got giveawayoftheday to email me the link to download the software I would get a 404 error and be redirected back to giveawayoftheday.com’s main page where I could start over and have them email me a link which resulted in the same sequence / redirect loop of the 404 page not found error being shown. So I think that this site had a broken link that was making users stuck in redirect.
I was not even able to download the software or the read me file to even start the activation process. If there is any way I can still redeem this offer please let me know.

Peter, We apologize for that issue.

shaw , The product supports Windows 10 64-bit.

shaw , please note that the ADK version does not have to match your Windows version. The latest ADK can be downloaded at the official website:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/get-started/adk-install
Be sure to also Download the Windows PE add-on for the ADK.

John C - it took a while and directions weren't completely accurate (probably due to the partial install/removal), but I was able to remove the traces of the UIM that were causing the problem and reinstall Paragon Hard Disk manager!

John C, we are glad the new product has been successfully installed and hope it does not disappoint you in any way!

gardenman, such an option is available when you select 'Files/folders' as a backup source.

Viktor, The Files/Folders option will NOT do a full system backup (including Windows and software). So it's either backup Files/Folders *without Windows* or your whole system. But with 14 Free, you can make an actual system backup (Windows/Software) and yet skip huge games. Correct? That's why I'm sticking with 14 Free. It's so much better.

JonE, Downloaded, Registered & Installed without a hitch, but it takes a long time to open.

JonE, I thought this was a Hard Disk Manager; that's what the Title indicates, but as it turns out it's a Backup Program! It still takes an awful long time to Open!!

Miro, Have you followed Readme insructions to get the key?

Alexa, yes

Miro, Just a thought. I received several emails when I filled out the form. I had to look carefully to find the serial number, It's kinda hidden in the clutter. Look at this image and you will see where the ser. # is.

Maybe this will help.

Mark DeForest, you have unsubscribed from all our emails.
Please try again now

Alexa, it makes me sad to see that this is still happening. How can you still have your system set up that way? Correct me if I'm wrong but it seems to be the equivalent of a store saying if I can't send you my flyers you can't order from my shop, even if the reason is that you pass by the store every day and don't need the flyers or want them to go to waste.

It's lose-lose. If you think it's not, then be upfront to visitors. Your actual policy seems to be this: If you choose to unsubscribe from GOTD emails, GOTD will block your address entirely. You will not be able to receive email links to our software. Your requests for links will be discarded unseen.

I legit don't see any value in that policy but even worse than having it, is having it and not informing people clearly. Honestly, there is not a person in the world who thinks that clicking a link to unsubscribe from a company's promotional emails will result in their address, and future inquiries, being blocked by that company. If you don't believe me, I refer you to the thousands of reviews of many companies' practices right here on your very own site.

Est Phil,
After getting a key from Paragon I then checked on my Paragon account and for the Hard Disk Manager™ 25 Anniversary LE there is only shown a 64 bit download...

C.J., .Thanks but I noticed that. That is why I asked the question. I'd hoped the developer would respon.d

jboy,
I haven't had the time to try todays offer, but usually Paragons HD managers offers the possibility to make a boot CD (or USB ?) where there maybe are tools. My advice is that you install the product and then try to make the disc or USB...
Look for Recovery Media Builder or something like that (at least that is the title in the File menu of my old Paragon HD Manager 15..

jboy, You can create a bootable recovery media in the Hard Disk Manager by selecting Settings (a gearbox sign) > Recovery Media Builder to be able to boot your system and perform required operations in Windows PE or Linux RE.

George P. DHaene, yes, if you work on server - you need another product

OlgaPushkina, Having 2 computers networked together does not need a server nor does it create a server.

OlgaPushkina, But it is my HOME network of 2 computers.

I finally got the email with the serial key. It took about 2 1/2 hours.
Thanks.

wynford, As a default .pvhd format is used which consists of the container itself it's a primary file of the hard disk info, the index file (.pfi) that keeps meta-information on the corresponding incremental image and a .pbe file with parts of corresponding disks archives if the archive was split.

OlgaPushkina, programs like Macrium Reflect (free) makes an image of all 4 partitions on my one hard drive in one file, that is what i'm going by.

wynford, I use Macrium Reflect (free) and it will let you backup single partitions into separate files. I have restored a full drive from these separate partitions when a hard drive failed, and when moving to a larger drive). I prefer separate partitions (and differential backups for each) because some change more often or are more critical than others, so I can do quick backups based on need. And... if one gets corrupted I won't lose *everything*.
I also have Paragon HDM 15, I've trusted Paragon with my disks for many years. I prefer Macrium for backups, though it's much more complex. Paragon for partition management.

Duncan, Please follow Readme instructions

Duncan, you need to check information in your Paragon account.
If you have created it in the past (GAOTD 25th version was available
last year - this one is an update) -you will get no information about the serial number or any clue by e-mail now. Strange, annoying. That old serial number available at paragon account is valid. If you have forgotten password to your account you can reset it.

Alexa, Yours is a really vague reply. I find the same issue as Duncan even after following the ReadMe instructions, which lead me to my Paragon account, which showed me nothing in the way of a serial number to use for this version. I will probably just stick to my older version which has served me well.

jamies,

"So I start the install and get a message
"need to remove Universal Image Mounter""

Open Control Panel -> Device Mgr., find the UIM mounter, right click & uninstall, choosing remove files if available. The old version should work with the new UIM.

Mike,
Thanks for that.

Shame that the install process did not indicate that -
As in a message saying just uninstall the UIM and no need to do all the 'techie' stuff .
Then again - why it couldn't just post a message asking for confirmation it was OK for the install to do the replacement for the user.

The new version has a simplified UI with options imbedded in the commentary rather than as evidently selectable options.

A further comment - Yes Paragon do provide good software
BUT
I would clear the Trust [Paragon] tickbox if for no other reason than it is possible to spoof addresses - and I want to be sure that if not managing, I am at least monitoring the install and update processes.

Jean Janssens, unfortunately, yes, only X64. The full Version, not limited Edition, can work with X32

Jean Janssens, yes, it works only for X64

Jean Janssens,
Yes, it seems that only a X64 version is available, certainly for W10.
