What do you mean RestoreX360 can restore data up to the minute of system crash?

Article ID: 82

All computer backup and restore solutions by theory work in a timeline fashion. For example, you create backup A at 1:00PM, you create backup B at 2:00PM. If your PC crashes at 1:40PM, you risk losing 40 minutes worth of data by restoring the PC from backup A. The only way to minimize the risk is to reduce the backup interval. You can backup your PC in every 10 minutes, but in which case you still risk losing up to 10 minutes worth of data in an event of system crash. Theoretically there is always a between your last backup and next backup, no matter how small the gap is.

RestoreX360 uniquely design provides you the ability to possibility eliminate this restoring data up to the minute of system crash.

Let a use an example to see how we can do this with RestoreX360.

Situation:

1. You setup RestoreX360 to take daily snapshots at 10:00AM.
2. It’s 3:00AM in the afternoon. Your PC crashed with a Windows Blue Screen of Death.
3. You have been working on a word document, report.doc.
4. You know you can restore the PC from the snapshot taken by RestoreX360 at 10:00AM. But doing so you will lose the work that you have done on the report.doc. since 10:00AM.
5. How can you recover the PC to a working condition and restore the most current version report.doc from 3:00PM right before the system crash?

Solution:

1. Restart the PC. Press the HOME key to access RestoreX360 pre-OS Recovery Console.
2. Select a New snapshot’s from in the pre-OS Recovery Console and name the new snapshot Crash PC. The snapshot Crash PC contains everything on the hard drive including the sales.doc from 3:00PM right before the crash (The unique design of RestoreX360 allows you to take a snapshot of a PC even if Windows OS fails to load).
3. Select a Rollback computer and pick the snapshot taken at 10:00AM.
4. After you boot into Windows, open RestoreX360, select the snapshot  “Crash PC taken in the step 2 and browse it as virtual drives. Now you can find the report.doc in the virtual drive and restore it.

Result:

You have successfully recovered the crash PC to working condition from the snapshot taken at 10:00AM and restored the latest copy of report.doc right before the system was crashed at 3:00PM.
