Operation Manual

6.3.12 Restoration summary and executing restoration

At the final step, the restoration summary is displayed. Up to this point, you can click Back

to make changes in the created task. If you click Cancel, no changes will be made to

disk(s). Clicking Proceed will launch the task execution.

The task progress will be shown in a special window. You can stop the procedure by clicking

Cancel. However, it is critical to note that the target partition will be deleted and its space

unallocated – the same result you will get if the restoration is unsuccessful. To recover the

“lost” partition, you will have to restore it from the image again.

6.4 Setting restore options

To view or edit the default restore options, select Tools -> Options -> Default

Restoration Options from the main program menu.

You can edit the default (or set the temporary) restore options while creating a restore task

as well.

6.4.1 Files overwriting mode

This option allows you to keep useful data changes made since the backup being restored

was done. Choose what to do if the program finds in the target folder a file with the same

name as in the archive:

• Overwrite existing file – this will give the archived file unconditional priority over the

file on the hard disk.

• Overwrite existing file if it is older – this will give the priority to the most recent file

modification, whether it be in the archive or on the disk.

• Do not overwrite existing file – this will give the file on the hard disk unconditional

priority over the archived file.

This option is effective only when restoring files from file/folder archives.

6.4.2 Pre/post commands

You can specify commands or batch files to be automatically executed before and after the

restore procedure. Click Edit to open the Edit Command window where you can easily
