Isoo Backup

Some computer problems can be solved quickly if you know what you're doing, while others are too severe and may force you to reinstall your operating system. To prepare for such issues, you can use Isoo Backup to back up your operating system, along with all your files, settings and apps. Even if your system becomes unbootable, you will be able to restore everything to the way it was without going through too much trouble.

The software is free to try, without any major restrictions. Its setup package is small, so you can download it and install its components in under a minute, even on slower machines. It doesn't require any special tools or services, and it doesn't make use of too many resources.

Backing up an entire operating system may sound like a daunting task, but Isoo Backup makes it quite easy. All you have to do is tell it what to back up and where, and the program will take it from there. Its modern and sleek-looking user interface certainly helps in finding the right controls for carrying out a backup operation. It sorts everything in two separate categories, for backing up and restoring, so you will know where to look from the moment you run the application.

When setting up a backup task, you can just leave everything on default and click a button to start right away. However, you can also explore an options menu and target your system partition or another drive, choose a destination, decide how to store the backup and more. Additionally, you can set the program to shut down or restart your computer once the process is complete, but, more important, you can also decide to install Isoo Backup boot options, which show up when you turn the computer on, to help you restore your operating system if it doesn't boot anymore.

All the backups you create are displayed in a list, which shows up when you explore the interface's Restore section. To help you identify backups more easily, the software lets you type custom remarks when you create them, and it displays them next to their corresponding backups. When you spot the one you want to restore, you only need to proceed to the next step to confirm and start the operation.

Even in the worst-case scenario, you can still salvage your operating system, along with all your data and settings if you rely on Isoo Backup.
