Additional Features
MAGIX PC Backup MX provides additional useful functions for managing your
data; you can restore system backups, recover data or delete data for good.
Create rescue medium: Create a bootable disc or USB stick as rescue
medium that you can use to restore the old system after a PC crash, for
example. The previously created backup of the drive can then be restored with
the help of this rescue medium.
Data shredder: The data shredder allows you to delete any files, so that they
cannot be restored (not even with data recovery programs such as the
"Undelete" function in MAGIX PC Backup MX).
Undelete: With this function, you can restore files that you deleted using the
standard Windows deletion process before they are overwritten irrevocably by
other new files. However, only those files may be restored whose original file
has not been overwritten, even in part.
