There is a high chance of data loss during system crash and hence computer experts advise to keep regular backups of your hard disk drives. Backup softwares can keep regular backups of your hard disk so that you can restore an old backup to restore all your previous files and documents. However, most smart and feature-rich Windows backup tools come as shareware version which means that you can use them for a limited number of times or days.
DriveImage XML is a free backup software that takes proper backup of your hard disk drive. Using DriveImage XML you can take backup of local drives and partitions as image files, browse, view or extract backup images, restore backup images, copy directly from drive to drive, schedule automatic backups with Task Scheduler and more.
All backup images are stored as .xml files which means that your backups won’t be readable by any other program. Since this backup tool uses Microsoft’s Volume Shadow Services (VSS), users can easily take image backup of drives that are currently in use and can also restore images to drives without having to reboot. DriveImage XML is compatible with Windows XP, Server 2003, Vista.
