Ashampoo Backup Pro is Windows-based a comprehensive backup solution to back up or restore any file, partition or bootable operating system. Real-time file monitoring updates backups fully automatically on file modifications. Archives can easily be restored in the event of hardware issues or system malware infections. Backups can be created fully automatically thanks to smart background technology that does not interfere with normal PC operation. For that, Ashampoo Backup Pro monitors the system load and only becomes active when enough resources are available. Four different compression methods and strong encryption ensure space-efficient and secure backup archives. Users have total control over the storage location and medium, from traditional hard disks to online cloud services for maximum accessibilityâ??and this applies to both individual files and entire disk partitions. Restoring archives can either be achieved through the program itself or Windows Explorer. And if worst comes to worst and your system suffers from total failure, the program's rescue system will still allow you to boot your machine and restore your backup without data loss. It can either be run from a portable flash drive/hard disk or an optical medium, like a DVD. During backups, Ashampoo® Backup Pro 25 constantly verifies each operation to avoid data inconsistency. This even includes health monitoring for your disk drives, with instant notifications should a drive be on the brink of failure. The program comes with templates to further speed up the creation of backup plans.
