InstantRescue Description

InstantRescue aims to provide a reliable and efficient system recovery solution that can salvage your files and folders in case the computer fails to boot. What it actually does is create a so-called 'Rescue Area' that can be then used to restore the entire system in case of a virus infection or a system failure.Data anchoring modeWhat sets this particular application apart from other recovery tools is the automatic data anchoring technology. This feature enables users to anchor important files and folders to the Rescue Area. In other words, any change made to the anchored files is automatically included in the Rescue Area as well, so they will be available at any time, in their latest state. By default, the application anchors files found in the 'My Documents', 'My Music', 'My Pictures' and 'My Videos' folder, but you can add as many files as you want to the list. Anchoring is done using the integrated wizard, which guides you through the entire procedure. Automatically creates a recovery areaAt first launch, InstantRescue starts creating the 'Rescue Area', in the same location where Windows is installed. Please note that an important amount of disk space is required for this operation to complete, so you first have to make sure your hard disk will not run out of free storage space. The boot time and size of the original and the rescue area are displayed in the main window of the application, alongside the booting state. Thanks to the Auto-Recovery mode InstantRescue will try to retrieve a functioning state of your system after three consecutive reboot attempts. An alternative to restore points in WindowsWindows comes with its own recovery system by using restore points created by the user. However, going back to a previous state means you lose file modifications that occurred after that specific restore point was created. InstantRescue aims to solve this matter, providing a way for you to restore the most recent versions of your files and folders in case of an event that makes your PC unusable. On the downside, a large amount of storage space is required for the rescue area to be created. Reviewed by Mihaela Citea, last updated on January 7th, 2015
