The new distro, the version number has not changed, the date of the digital signature has changed.

 

There's not been an urgent need (which is mostly what i use it for) in a good while on this end.

But good to know they are improving this product as well as Backupper which is my TOP imager (and Hasleo)

This addition doesn't apply to me myself but i can see where it will be helpful for some.
In the meantime Aomei Backupper continues to perform spectacularly and is my Go-To #1 Backup & Restore with Hasleo Backup Suite #2. Both are proven Magnificent on this end and have mothballed Drive Snapshot and another.

 

For me too !

 

still using Aomei never let me down yet
Dont know if Hasleo is better or not

 

I snagged a giveaway of Aomei Backupper just out of curiosity. Today I ran a full backup. I don't know what they've done with it, but it's much, much faster than the older version I used a couple of years ago. It's even faster than EaseUS by a couple of minutes. The full backup took 16 minutes 24 seconds to complete. The restore test was fast and accurate. No problems. Aomei will stay on this system along with Macrium.

 

See? @Chuck57 This is what you have seen me favoring and it's assumed Number 1 Back Up & Restore Solution on this end. The next one (Hasleo Backup Suite) is a very close 2nd, and regardless of position, i always use these 2 both every time i make an image. Their restores are picture perfect as well for me. AND VERY FAST!

 

Easter, Aomei really impressed me. I've read where some people have problems with the restore feature, but it was flawless here, and I think at least as fast, if not faster, than Macrium Reflect. And I'm running an old 2015 era HP laptop with a 1TB HDD, saving to an old external Western Digital 500GB Passport

 

Aomei Backupper is proven very User Friendly for me. I liked Macrium Reflect when using it before, but it seemed to struggle at times. It restored okay but certain changes in my system it would (in order to evaluate i suppose) made it slow up. With Backupper everything is been smooth, error-free, and pretty fast. Fast being subjective i guess. The settings as mentioned are user friendly and just a few presses/clicks and it goes about it's business and sometimes a lot faster than i expected. As you said @Chuck57 - flawless. It wouldn't hurt for you to also look into Hasleo Backup Suite.

If not for switching over to Aomei from Macrium/Drive Snapshot over a year ago, Hasleo by now (and still might be at some point) the Top Image/Restore Solution for my systems. But no matter. I use them BOTH at each Image Taking Sessions and can confidently rely on a perfect restore!

A question: I used Aomei Backupper for many years and it works fine. But recently I have a problem restoring a partittion image, because the operation failed. My questiion is: may be because the size of partition ( C:/ ) where I tried to restore the image was changed - I resized it before the restore - respect the size that it had when I created the image ?

 

Another question: in Windows 7 and 10 I always made a partittion image for C:/ and I never had problems. May be that with 11 I have to create a system partition for C ? It would contain, I see in AOMEI, C and two other partition, one of 100 MB and one of 637 MB. Now I have a doubt about what kind of backup choose to have a safe restore of C.

 

blacknight,

AOMEI does sector based copies/restores so if your original partition was....( * is sectors in use, - is free space)

[---**----**--]


then the target partition to copy/restore into can not be smaller than...

[---**----**]

You can't do this...

[****]

Unless the restore has a Compact option.

 

Can you post a screenshot of the Disk Management rectangles?

 

Thanks. A MBR system so the Windows booting files will be in the 100 MB partition. The 637 MB partition is probably a Recovery Environment partition. You certainly need to backup the first two partitions if you want to restore your system to a new drive in the event of drive failure. If your OS partition becomes corrupt you only need to restore the OS partition image to the same drive.

But to make things easy, backup all 3 partitions and restore all 3 backup images if there is an OS issue. It's overkill but is easy.

With UEFI systems you will probably have 4 partitions that need to be backed up.

 

Thanks a lot. If I restore only the OS partition image ( C:/ ) I will not have any problems ? I always made so in other pc with 7 and 10 but, as I said above, with 11 I had a problem, I hope only because I changed C:/'s before restoring.

Can I make a system backup of all three partition ?

 

That should be OK in almost all circumstances. If the 100 MB partition is corrupted, it will need to be restored too.

I'd backup all 3 partitions, every time. An entire drive backup.

 

This from the Aomei website, https://www.ubackup.com/help/disk-backup.html:
"If you have already created a disk backup for the running system disk, there is no need to run a system backup separately".
