I've been testing the ability of various imaging apps to restore an entire drive image of a UEFI Win8.1 system to a new empty HD. EaseUS Todo does this successfully using the WinPE recovery disk. All 4 partitions were restored in their correct order. The Linux recovery disk failed (could find the image but couldn't do anything further).
the problems i have consistantly had with easeus and even with the latest version is when doing a restore i have seen it mess up the 4k size pretty bad. as well as having to run a chkdsk to correct issues before the system would properly boot. otherwise it does work very well but i dont trust it myself.
Probably no support for Win8.1 but I'm still using EaseUS Todo Backup Advanced Server 4.5. Must be 6 years old but for me the best Win7 Pro x64.
I cloned my HDD with EaseUS ToDo to transfer all to a new SSD. It worked well, but I had to run a chkdsk before booting with SSD. Then all was Ok. It was Win7, though.
Anyone running latest EaseUs Todo Backup 10 on Win 10? Please share your experience with its backup/restore, etc...
Attached are 2 screenshots named SCR 1 & SCR 2 SCR 1 - "Preserve file security settings in backup" - checked by default...when I create "System Backup" plan & save it, the option is unchecked - is this coz "System Backup" dont need that option And the option is for "File Backup"? SCR 2 - "Exclude Files" - unchecked by default...when I create "System Backup" plan, should I keep it disabled or enable it/any entry under it?
Unfortunately no. I gave it a quick run taking an image. Then tried a restore and it failed. It's been a few months.
Tried backup/restore with Todo Backup Workstation. C Partition 48GB/100GB Full, D Data Partition (Todo Backups saved on D Partition) Full Backup - 30 Mins Incremental Backup 1 - Under 20 Secs Incremental Backup 2 - Under 20 Secs Incremental Backup 3 - Under 20 Secs Todo Backup Pre-OS Console (WinPE) Restored to Incremental Backup 3 - 28 Mins Checked system, everything fine. chkdsk, sfc /scannow fine. Only Google Chrome settings mentioned corrupted, reset settings. Reset settings fine.
I am trying EaseUS Todo Workstation on Win 10 64 Pro And mentioned my first backup/restore experience in my previous posts. I like it, good & easy GUI, options, light, Incremental backup fast & impressive & overall good. I thought how EaseUS handles images if its taking backup & system is shutdown, etc... So when my scheduled incremental backup kicked in, I restarted the system. After system restart, I checked my backup folder And a new incremental was there. I checked the new incremental i.e "check image" & EaseUS mentioned image error/bad image. I checked image details from the GUI & now the bad image was not there in the image list BUT the bad image was still there in my backup folder. I manually started incremental backup & completed fine. Now I wonder what would happen if I try to restore to last incremental (previous incremental is bad in the chain & is there in my backup folder But not in image list in the GUI)?
