The Goals of Bootable USB Backup Software Utility

Bootable System Backup to Restore PC

Our software is equipped with a Disaster Recovery module, which lets you create a bootable backup drive and use it to restore your PC after a crash. It has multiple first-aid functions and is fully compatible with backups made in Windows. Please contact us to obtain a copy of a Disaster Recovery utility.

Hard Disk Cloning

Backing up your HDD and restoring it to a different device is an easy way to clone all the information on your hard drive. You can clone your disk either when you running the program under Windows or when you installing a system on some PC from a bootable recovery drive.

Note! You must have a legal right to re-install a bootable backup image to other machine! For bootable backup Linux images, this is often not an issue, but when you use Handy Backup as Windows bootable backup software, beware the consequences for illegal re-installation or copying!

Hot Computer Backup

Unlike other bootable backup software, the program allows you backing up system drive without stopping Windows. Complete computer backup can be performed in a hot mode (e.g., making a bootable backup Windows without a reboot), and does not interfere with your work at all.
