Is there any way to turn enable off and on in the
free version besides rebooting once enabled ?

Can one copy files from returnil system to an external hard drive
in the free version ? Or from the virtual disk once made?

Can bookmarks in any version of Returnil be made to a browser when protective
mode is enabled and still be retained ?

As far as the FREE version;

1. NO - ( you need to reboot)
2. YES - you can save anything & everything to an external drive (or internal drive , basically any OTHER partition or drive, EXCEPT C:\ (system partition)
3. NO - any changes to system partition C: will be lost

No, 'once enabled' you'd need to reboot to switch protection off

Yes

I assume so, if you relocate the bookmarks folder to somewhere other than your system drive.

All your questions are addressed in more detail here (http://www.returnilvirtualsystem.com/support/faq).

Thanks for the quick responses. One other question. I forgot I had
a bit torrent session when I was checking out Returnil. Assumng
that I downloaded 20 % more of a file after I initiated Returnil
and rebooted before completion of the bit torrent, can I assume that the
20% of the bit torrent file will have to to be redownloaded and more
than likely won't be corrupted? Returnil seems to be a very
impressive program from what I have seen so far.

Hi txgoogoo and welcome to the forums :)

It depends. If the torrent fragment was saved prior to activating System Safe then it should remain following a restart. You should experiment with this to see if this would cause damage as this has not been specifically tested.
