Macrium Reflect helps users, even the inexperienced ones, to protect their computer from a possible crash by backing up their system in a very easy manner.
Macrium Reflect is a program that backs up the system, in a easy manner.
It creates images (Ghost) or disk images of the system, copies, compress and records the entire PC on a partition, or on a storage medium, for a recovery from a crash.
It is possible to provide backup and recovery with simple clicks. More advanced users will benefit from export opportunities in xml format and management of Visual Basic scripts.
Modules with password protection and restoration are also included. The application supports most storage devices (CD, DVD, USB flash drive, removable hard drive) as well as NTFS, FAT and ext2 systems. Automatically regular backups can be scheduled using the planning function.
* New:
- Reduced memory usage when backing up large partitions.
> The amount of memory required when backing up multi-Terabyte partitions has been reduced.
- Additional logging.
> Clones and Image Restores (in Windows) now generate logs and can be viewed by clicking the 'Log' tab.
- Server Plus - Exchange 2010 mailbox restore improvements.
> Improved the authentication requirements when restoring mailboxes from Exchange 2010.
- Server Plus - New Exchange verification dialog.
> A new user friendly verification dialog for verifying exchange backups.
- Dynamic disks shown for all editions of Macrium Reflect.
> Dynamic disks were hidden from the Reflect main window for the Free and Standard editions of Macrium Reflect. Dynamic disks are now shown but imaging and cloning is not possible unless running the Professional or Server editions.
- Retain existing disk signature when cloning.
> When cloning to a pre-initialized disk, the existing disk signature is retained.
* Bug Fixes:
- Upgrade install license key improvements
> When running an upgrade msi install the currently installed license key is now pre-populated in the install dialog.
- XML File rename problem.
> When taking the XML rename function in Reflect, some irrelevant shortcuts may have been indicated as requiring updating. This has been resolved.
- Bug with File and Folder restore time remaining.
> Incorrect restore time remaining could be indicated when selecting the option to 'Only replace if different'. This has been resolved.
- Application error at start-up
> Reflect could crash at start-up if a bad sector is detected when reading the NTFS file system bitmap. This has been resolved.
