Introducing AX64 Time Machine - hybrid imaging/snapshot software

Not sure if this is the cause of your issue, and somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe currently (due to a bug) following a warm restore the boot menu is removed. So you may need to put it in place again - backup tools tab > rescue media builder > startup manager > install

 

You are correct, Taotoo... that is a current bug (being fixed as we type).

PS - when the re-install occurs, the BOOT time in the BOOTmgr is set to 3-sec., which for most people is too fast for normal menu use. To change this, after the install, go to the RUN dialogue box and execute a MSCONFIG. Then use the BOOT TAB to change the timing of the menu latency.

 

Hello taotoo. It has not worked since I installed the new Passport drive. I don't understand the path you gave...'backup tools tab > rescue media builder > startup manager > install'.....where is backup tools tab ?

 

Rainwalker, those options are in the main menu of TM v2...

 

And somewhere else if you're using v1 - shouldn't be too hard to find.

 

Thanks for the confirmation (ps personally I find 3 seconds to be perfect - but then I don't like waiting!).

 

Where?

 

Boot menue should be fine with NTFS. ExFAT is used for memory cards and not for hard drives as I know.

Once in the Recovery Media option window, look for a 4th option near the bottom for LOCAL BOOT.

 

From memory there is an icon at the bottom of the main screen - perhaps the rightmost one. If it's not easy to find, is it possible you're using a version that doesn't support the preboot function?

 

Needed to add (3) more 'cause one of my displays takes 3-sec to re-sync to the newer resolution

 

Thanks for your time Froggy, but I see no such option in v.1.4.1.36. I do see Local Storage and have already set that up. I had been using this version successfully for months.

Ok...as I wrote I was not sure. May have been a flash stick. I was thinking why back Isso had said something about FAT32....oh well.

 

UPDATE: I gave up the ghost. Resisted V.2 as V. 1 was working flawlessly....until it wasn't. Now running V. 2. So far so good.

 

Now you're definitely gonna get a disappearing boot menu

 

Ouch! I never even noticed my screen resyncing - not sure if mine is set to window the picture, or even if that would avoid a resync.

 

Not sure what you mean, but now I can always go back to V.1 as I am sure the boot menu will still be there. Think I'll stay with V.2 unless....

 

Hello,

I was about to ask the same question. At least I now know that others have not received a reply also...

 

Here's why the boot menu will disappear with v2:

Oh yeah.......will not be sweating it next time. Maybe fixed soon.....

 

If using HOT restore with v2, it will act same as v1... if using WARM restore, then the LOCAL BOOT MENU will disappear (if you have it installed) following the WARM restore. I'm sure it'll be fixed in the next release.

Just re-INSTALL it if you need it.

 

I already got mine.

 

Me too.

 

I got mine OK, but sent the request to info@ax64.com
