Drive Snapshot v1.39.0.14145
SnapShot is disk imaging software that enables the user to back up, restore and view backed up hard disk data,
easily and safely.
1. Snapshot Backup - create disk images while Windows is running
This allows the user to work in his usual environment when backing up his data.
Any device suitable for file storage can be used for the image destination, like your local drive, a network drive
or any removable drive
And - most important - the image will be an industrial quality image, even though WinNT constantly writes to the
disk. The user may continue to work normally, while a backup operation is in progress; the image will still be
valid and consistent.
This enables one of the most important things in backup business: backup often
It is even possible to make an image backup for servers, that must be online 24 hours a day. More details about

Snapshot Backup - Main use
Snapshot Backup is aimed at the backup/disaster recovery market. There is little use for on the fly disk image
creation, if you want to deploy hundreds or thousands of workstations. We think however, that the possibility to
do on the fly backup is very important for the end user to regularly protect his data. At least, this was our
reason to create Snapshot. No need to shut down and boot from floppy, no need to create network disks, and no
need to wait half an hour for the backup process - we think that's nice.
2. Snapshot View - Explore saved disk images the friendly way
The image file is presented to the user as a virtual drive. This virtual drive can be used like any other drive,
using any Windows program, be it Explorer, Norton Commander, or your favourite MP3 Player. More details about
