As its name suggests, Partition Saving is an application designed to help you backup elements of different storage devices, ranging from partitions, hard disks or even the Master Boot Record sector. It comes in handy for backing up hard disk contents and restoring it at a later time.

The main interface resembles old DOS applications and comprises a list of all the available actions that the application can perform, enabling you to choose the desired one using either your keyboard or the mouse.

Partition Saving can save an element or restore it from an existing backup file. Also, it can copy a partition or a disk to another similar location. The generated backup files can be copied, compressed and verified, in order to detect possible backup errors. You can explore a partition or a backup file directly from the application and view its contents.

In addition to this, the application can update the partition definitions in the Windows registry, which changes the corresponding drive letter, in order to help the system identify it correctly after the partition is restored to another location.

The BOOTSECT.BAK file and the boot configuration can also be updated, so that the boot loader can search the moved partition in the right location. You can use it to reset bad sectors in the filesystem, fix broken FAT or NTFS boot sectors, replace the FAT or NTFS boot sector with a copy, in case the original one is damaged or create dummy files on NTFS drives for using them in the backup process.

Although it is easy to use, Partition Saving comes with a set of tools for handling hard disk sectors, which should only be accessed by advanced users. Other than that, it is a handy backup solution for partitions and disks.
