What's new in Paragon Backup & Recovery 16 10.2.0.1235
Aug 4, 2017
- Paragon Backup & Recovery 16 comes with a unique user interface and simplified user guide to help set up scenario-based backup tasks with ease. This “set-it-and-forget-it” technology incorporates a brand-new, intuitive approach for defining basic parameters, such as backup type, interval/event, retention, and scenario-based jobs limited to simply selecting “what” and “where.” The new pivotal action panels display user backups and backup states at a single glance.
- Research reveals that one-third of PC users have never backed up their systems at all. The two main reasons cited are lack of time and the tedious nature of the process. The new Paragon Backup & Recovery 16 has been revamped to meet the needs of customers who want to avoid a complicated and time-consuming process. With Backup & Recovery 16, you can set complex backup routines quickly and easily like never before. Paragon Backup & Recovery 16 provides peace of mind for data and system safety, easy and flexible backup, and fast recovery.
New in Paragon Backup & Recovery 15 10.1.25.348 (Apr 9, 2015)
- Embedded Recovery Media Builder (RMB) 3.0. Instead of two utilities downloaded from Paragon's website (BMB and RMB), the new RMB 3.0 is now embedded into the product. Combining the best of the two utilities, it can boast more options, usability, and stability:
- Prepares Linux or WinPE-based bootable environment on a USB thumb drive or in an ISO image;
- Doesn’t obligatory require Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK) or Automated Installation Kit (WAIK) on Windows 7 and later platforms;
- Can build WinPE-based media on Windows XP, Vista, Server 2003 if there’s WAIK installed in the system;
- Allows injecting additional drivers for storage devices, network controllers, USB controllers, or system during setup;
- Enables to set up a network connection with a pre-mounted network share during setup;
- Prepares hybrid (both, uEFI and BIOS compatible) 64-bit recovery environment on flash or in an ISO image.
- File-level backup/restore for virtual containers (pVHD, VHD, VHDX, VMDK). As promised, Paragon's innovative backup imaging technology has been further improved and now opens up the option of creating file-level virtual containers (full, incremental, as well as file complements), thus offering users rock-stable, high-performance technology to protect system and data not only on sector-level, but file-level as well. This means that the old PBF format will eventually leave the scene.
- Predefined views. The Windows 8 like streamlined, tile-oriented interface has been enhanced by predefined views, which enable to adjust the working environment to particular customer needs.
New in Paragon Backup & Recovery 14 10.1.21.287 (Mar 20, 2014)
- Full range of backup and recovery solutions
- Your system and valuable data are protected and can be restored in case of any disaster
- Back up files and folders, operating system or even your entire hard disk to any storage you choose
- Enhanced Backup Format
- Windows 8.1 Support
New in Paragon Backup & Recovery 10.0.19.16240 (Mar 16, 2013)
- Support of Windows 8.
- Support of GPT/uEFI configurations to successfully clone, migrate, or restore a 64-bit Windows configured to the uEFI-based boot mode; to fix uEFI related boot problems.
- Incremental backup to a sector image is a further way of optimizing the process of disk imaging. Unlike differentials, it may not only contain data changed since the time of creating a full sector-based archive, but one of its increments as well, thus allowing to save more time and the backup storage. Introduction of a special index file that stores backup meta-information minimizes time and resources to create this type of archives.
New in Paragon Backup & Recovery 10.0.17.13783 (Oct 5, 2011)
- The updated P2P Adjust OS Wizard to successfully start up a Windows physical system on a different hardware platform (P2P) by allowing injection of all required drivers and the other actions crucial for this type of migration. Including the third generation of Paragon’s Adaptive Restore technology, it now can:
- Analyze all installed drivers inside a target system to report on devices without drivers.
- Search for and install lacking drivers from the built-in Windows repository.
- Notify the user about boot critical devices without drivers (HDD/RAID controllers, etc.), automatically prompting to provide a path to a driver repository.
- Name all devices according to their model description, not some alphanumeric code, which requires additional deciphering.
- Determine and install drivers not only for boot critical devices, but for physically connected NICs as well.
- Automatic partition alignment during partitioning/copy operations to optimize performance of your hard disk.
- Check FS Integrity and Data Loss Policies to let you specify the acceptable balance between the operation performance and the risk of data loss.
- Conversion of basic MBR disks to basic GPT to enjoy all benefits of the newest partitioning scheme with minimal effort.
- WinPE 3.0 based bootable environment to enjoy support of a wider range of hardware configurations with the option to add drivers for specific hardware on-the-fly.
- The updated Boot Corrector for WinPE that now equals the functionality of the Linux/DOS counterpart.
- Backup files or entire disks to an FTP/SFTP server to provide a new level of system and data protection.
- Better performance for backup operations by employing asynchronous data transfer.
- Automatic backup/restore of ACL (Access Control List) for file backups to inherit access permissions for backup contents when restoring to a different location.
- Password protection for file backups to prevent unauthorized access to your personal data.
- Traceroute/Ping utility to verify network connections from the WinPE 3.0 based recovery environment.
- Better support for 64-bit platforms to reboot your computer to one of the three special modes (Windows native, Linux, or DOS) to automatically complete operations, which cannot be accomplished under 64-bit Windows.
- Support of the restart-free installation.
- AFD (Advanced Format Drive) ready.
- Support of 2TB+ and non-512B sector size drives.
- USB 3.0 ready.
