4.7 ESET SysRescue
ESET SysRescue is a utility which enables you to create a bootable disk containing one of the ESET Security
solutions - it can be ESET NOD32 Antivirus, ESET Smart Security or even some of the server-oriented products. The
main advantage of ESET SysRescue is the fact that ESET Security solution runs independent of the host operating
system, while it has a direct access to the disk and the entire file system. This makes it possible to remove
infiltrations which normally could not be deleted, e.g., when the operating system is running, etc.
4.7.1 Minimum requirements
ESET SysRescue works in the Microsoft Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE) version 2.x, which is
based on Windows Vista.
Windows PE is a part of the free package Windows Automated Installation Kit (Windows AIK), and therefore
Windows AIK must be installed before creating ESET SysRescue (http://go.eset.eu/AIK). Due to the support of the
32-bit version of Windows PE, it is necessary to use a 32-bit installation package of ESET Security solution when
creating ESET SysRescue on 64-bit systems. ESET SysRescue supports Windows AIK 1.1 and higher.
NOTE: Since Windows AIK is over 1 GB in size, a high-speed internet connection is required for smooth download.
ESET SysRescue is available in ESET Security solutions version 4.0 and higher.

4.7.2 How to create rescue CD
To launch the ESET SysRescue wizard, click Start > Programs > ESET > ESET Mail Security > ESET SysRescue.
First, the wizard checks for the presence of Windows AIK and a suitable device for the boot media creation. If
Windows AIK is not installed on the computer (or it is either corrupt or installed incorrectly), the wizard will offer
you the option to install it, or to enter the path to your Windows AIK folder (http://go.eset.eu/AIK).
NOTE: Since Windows AIK is over 1 GB in size, a high-speed internet connection is required for smooth download.
In the next step , select the target media where ESET SysRescue will be located.
