Active@ Boot Disk Creator

Active@ Boot Disk Creator could be characterized as your cyber safety net. Why? It offers solutions for recovering data, passwords, and other files from damaged Windows installations, by providing bootable options for its WinPE-based rescue suite.

It is also customizable, in case you need certain specific features for your recovery process. Creating bootable media is quite easy, meaning you won't need much knowledge to recover what is yours quickly.

The best aspect about such suites is that they allow the user to access their computer's storage even if the OS is damaged. It sort of works like a small emergency operating system that gives you some features to regain access to your property.

It can easily be booted from any sort of disc or USB drive, although this also depends on your hardware specifications. The suite includes data and password recovery tools, a disk health checking app, partitioning utilities, and even one e-mail sending program.

If you do know what's wrong with your OS, especially if you've messed things in the registry, the included Regedit feature will give you the chance to quickly fix what was broken and avoid a time-costly OS reinstallation. A web browser is also one of those features we've come to expect from such rescue suites, seeing as we can't live that much without being connected to the rest of the world.

The actual procedure for creating a bootable disc or USB drive isn't all that different from other similar tools. The app will guide you every step of the way, asking what type of media you'd like to create. There's also the option of creating an ISO image and having it burned later or mounted on whatever device you see fit.

From this step onwards, you'll have to preconfigure your bootable media to include and reflect your needs. This means you can add or remove certain features, add different utilities, depending on what your final goal is. You can use your created media on more than on PC, so long as the contents of the media fit your needs in those scenarios.

Active@ Boot Disk Creator might look like one of those professional tools, but it is in fact a rather simple-to-access safety net for those moments when there really is no time to reinstall an operating system again, and you require fast and reliable access to your files and documents.
