Win10 prevents 3rd party backup programs from creating a bootable iso

never heard of Aomei backupper pro.

Try Rufus. Never failed me yet...

I do have Aomei Backupper Pro and is a fantastic program using many times to recover and restore however, on Windows 10 I can't make a startup disc.

Thanks! I installed it on my secondary desktop to give it a try.

 

Only available for a few more hours.

 

Aomei Partition Assistant Pro is also on
giveaway - only till the end of 1/1/17

 

Another 5 days of the giveaway, it seems.

 

I've been using Macrium Reflect Free. Does the AOMEI software have any advantages over Reflect and does it install any low level disk drivers since I had a bad experience with Acronis software?

 

I always intend to use MRF but take the view that it is a good plan to have a second different backup in case first fails. I will test aomei in a vm.

 

Thanks SWI2 for your post - appreciate getting this installed. I have Macrium Reflect, but like cerebus posted, I intend to use this as a plan for a 2nd backup source. Glad to get it.

 

@steveC

There are a lot of reports of those problems with Acronis.

None for Aomei as far as I know.

If you want to know the features, you can find them on Aomei website. E.G. Aomei Pro incldes Universal restore - which you don't get with macrium free.

I'm not sure if the free Macrium has incremental as Backupper.. and yup, Acronis is not top my list either.

 

Hi there

I've found macrium to be 100% reliable

I also copy files from my NAS servers to external HDD's using GRSYNC (GUI for RSYNC) (Linux) which works as 2nd backup option. The GRSYNC is brilliant as it can copy files on directory A NOT on Directory B / copy newer files etc etc -- really good FREE product.

As this is a Windows Forum you'll have to google it if you want more info but I've found this brilliant for keeping Files in SYNC across various devices / systems.

For System Backup of course you can't beat things like Macrium - but ANYTHING is better than nothing - even if it's only Windows explorer !!!!!.

Whatever systems you use check that the RESTORES work -- you don't want to get I/O or other error on a restore when the backup appeared to be successful.

I gave up on Acronis a long time ago.

I think Free Macrium can do incrementals / differentials -- however I use it to image my system drives. I backup / archive DATA using Linux though.

With an SSD a system image backup takes me around 10 mins - so I do this nightly and keep 5 versions on external media - I alternate the external media --don't have all backups on a single device - Hardware can and does get broken !!! fortunately not too often though --but it DOES happen.
