Drive Snapshot creates an exact Disk Image of your system into a file, including the operating system, installed programs, your data and all security attributes - while windows is running and you continue to work. Drive Snapshot it allows you to backup your partition or your hard disk drive and it also can create a disk image of your system. If disaster strikes (a virus, trojan, or hard disk crash), a complete and exact restauration of your system will be possible in only few minutes. The image file can be mounted as a virtual drive, so you can easily restore (or use) single files or directories, using the Windows Explorer, or other program.
Here are some key features of "Drive Snapshot":
• Create Disk Image Backups, while running Windows
• There is no restart (to DOS) necessary. Never.
• Continue your work, while the Backup is in progress
• The new Snapshot technology ensures, that all data are consistent, and reflect the PC's data at the start of backup. There are no difficulties with opened files. Never.
• This enables a very fast and easy way to backup servers and other computers, that must run 24 hours a day.
• Easy Use and Restore of single Files or directories
• Drive Snapshot creates a virtual drive, containing all your drives data. You may use, compare, or restore these files directly from the Disk Image file.
• This works with any program of your choice, including (of course) the Windows Explorer
• Complete Restore of a disk in case of Disaster
• If a disk is restored to it's original state, it will be exactly the same as at the time of Backup - byte for byte.
• Restoring a system partition will require DOS; other drives can be restored using Windows
• Compatible to all Windows file systems (FAT16, FAT32, NTFS)
• Compatible to all Windows RAID Methods
• Very easy and comprehensive command line interface
• This makes automation of regular tasks a breeze.

Installation Notes:
Installation
Specifically in a corporate environment, where dozens or hundreds of computers must be backed up, the need to install software (and usually reboot it after installation), can be annoying.
Drive Snapshot does not require an installation.
It's sufficient to download SNAPSHOT.EXE (about 350KByte) and to start it.
For pure 64-Bit Environments (WindowsPE and Windows64 Setup DVDs) you need the 64-bit SNAPSHOT64.EXE.
The normal 32-Bit Snapshot.exe runs on any version of Windows.
If you prefer a 'normal' installation, please download SETUP.EXE (about 3.5 MB).
SETUP copies Snapshot.exe into the \Programs directory, creates Start Menu entries, installs Help files (currently this website), and installs the necessary data to create a bootable DOS recovery diskette.
A complete Snapshot Setup requires about 2 MB free disk space.
Snapshot/Setup will NOT copy anything into your Windows or system directory.
Snapshot/Setup will NOT change anything in your system's configuration.
Everything necessary for Snapshot's operation will be dynamically done and undone.
Snapshot is intended to backup your computer in its present state, not to modify this state.
You need NOT to exit other programs to install Snapshot.
Just start it - and enjoy.
64Bit Recovery Environment
In 64 Bit Recovery environments (WindowsPE, BartPE, 64 Bit Win7 Setup) the 'normal' 32-bit Snapshot.exe doesn't work ('the required subsystem is missing' or similar). In these cases use the 64-bit Snapshot64.exe
