Enhanced Windows Backup - FREEWARE

Enhanced Windows Backup is software that protects your computer information to ensure that you don't lose anything if: your hard disk fails; your computer is stolen; your computer gets damaged; or you accidentally delete something.

Backup Software that enhances Windows Backup - NTBackup

Enhanced Windows Backup uses Windows' built in backup engine called Windows Backup (ntbackup.exe) which provides state-of-the-art core backup technology. Enhanced Windows Backup substantially extends the capabilities of NTBackup, providing an effective integrated backup solution that can take on leading edge but expensive solutions like Backup Exec and Retrospect from companies like Veritas, Symantec and Dantz.

With ever falling hard disk prices and the advent of cheap flash disks, tape backup is now largely redundant. Even DVD backups with a capacity of 4.7GB are highly restrictive. Hard disks are now the cheapest, fastest and most reliable backup media on the market. Enhanced Windows Backup is focussed on providing "backup to disk" and can use spare hard disk capacity: in the same computer; on other computers via a local area network (LAN); external hard disks (e.g. Firewire or USB2); or even disk storage across the internet.

Enhanced Windows Backup offers the following benefits :-

  uses Windows' built-in backup engine (NTbackup) which supports state-of-the-art capabilities such as Volume Shadow Copy, active directory backup, live registry backup etc.

  Multiple concurrent backup jobs
