Re: OT--Win7 and disk partitions



Excuse me for writing gibberish! I will try to reformulate:

If you are restoring to the same disk, the restore is fully functional without any further steps
(i.e. you not need any keys). When you are restoring the disk image to a new physical disk and the
software activation scheme (i.e. copy protection) is tied to a physical disk ID, you will probably
need new keys from software vendors. It is as if you had bought a new computer.

The best feature of this software is the ability to go back to any certain date when everything was
working perfectly. Or you can restore just one file that you mistakenly overwrote. Just schedule
automated backups and you are pretty much secure.
