I completed a revision of my instruction manual. I still have some correction to do. I am also retesting a full reployment on NVME+SATA scenarion (the new stuff) in Windows 10 in VmWare to be sure everything is OK. Final version 5.0.0 should be there before the end of the week.
And there we go! 5.0.0 is out. See main post or my web site for DL link. - No more compiled EXE but rather use interpreted AutoIT script. No more false positive for Windows 8/8.1/10 - Scanstate files are removed from the client computer (Windows 10) once capture is completed as it is no more required - Support for NVME+SATA combo (install on disk 0, 1 or 2 depenting of settings files used). Target drive can be specified during restore (full image) - Online HTML documentation for the end-user in French and English for Windows 10 - Removed the "App updates" script for Windows 10. Was not workign correctly and since Scanstate files are removed, it can't work anymore - New splash screen image for all version by default
Mmm. I think I must be missing something really obvious. Version 5.0.0 is asking for a password. I've gone through previous posts & the documentation but no joy. If someone could point me in the right direction I would be most grateful. Thanks
when you execute the EXE (not trying to unpack it with winrar or other) there is a text box with some informations. The password is in it. Anyway .... it is : I AGREE all caps, 1 space
Apologies for delay in responding. Preparation for England coming out of lockdown on Monday & being able to earn a Pound or two again. Anyway. Thankyou so much for the password. Box is definitely blank. I'm wondering if it's an Anti-Virus thing. It flags up under extraction also but no problem I just accept to continue. I'm using Avast! Also a chance to thankyou for your great software. I'm a long term user. must be a decade now I think. Proved to be a real lifesaver. Your work is really appreciated. Thanks again. Stuart
hey mate thank you for every thing you doing i been using your recovery tools since 2013 begging with windows 7 8 then 10 with w7 we have startup recovery button f7 and separated recovery driver the super perfect one to have all your application install and able to use them after each restore with w8.1 no startup key but still you had give us recovery drive was perfect since we had recovery and completing installation with installed application after each restore with w10 no startup key and recovery drive no application can get saved and after each restore you have to reinstall the application and some time the driver to comparing: windows 7 was 99.99% was same from head to toe as factory installation come from hp dell eg... windows 8 and 8.1 were perfect too had recovery every thing were close to factory installation windows 10 has no recovery option no startup key you can't save your application all normal windows w10 installation has option to restore option without delete or with date while the HP and Dell laptop with factory installed windows come with f11 startup recovery key separated (HP DELL) Recovery drive with most application backup in there sir will you able to make it like Windows 7 for Windows 10 Regard: Seven7i

1) The part that allows booting the recovery tools when pressing a button (liek F7) was customizable in Windows 7. Starting with Windows 8, Microsoft removed the previous way of doing that. the new method depends onf the manufacturer of the computer to embed, in the UEFI, a boot option that search for boot data on a particuler folder in the UEFI partition. Each manufacturer search in a different place. My current Dell XPS search in "\dell\sos" folder while regular boot search in "\microsoft\boot". You could re-use your manufacturer way of calling the boot option if you know the path it use, copy the current boot files there, and modify them with BCDEDIT to boot the Recovery Environment automatically. But you need to know that path. The computer must support it (no chance with Windows 7 era PC or clones), etc. Or you must find a way to modify the UEFI of the computer to use your own path. So, basically, I can't do anything for that since it is by desing. Don't forget that my tools is made to use existing stuff on the computer and build around them, not to replace tham which can cause compatibility issue. Also, with the Secure Boot stuff toady, there is not way for me to change any settings in the boot process. 2) I don't know exactly what you did wrong, but my tools, on all my computer with Windows 10, recover the applications I have installed prior the capture. Also, I have both option to do a "refresh" which basically reinstall Windows 10 + apps + drivers and keep previous file in the Windows.Old folder (or move them in the reinstallation) or to do a clean "reinstall" that completly wipe everything.
