New tool: AOMEI OneKey Recovery 1.1 FREE

[atlanticjim]

I have not yet tried it but it sure looks like it would fit into what I do.

"AOMEI OneKey Recovery likes Lenovo one key recovery, which is a kind of insurance policy for your computer, but it supports backing up all types of laptops and computers, not just Lenovo laptops. Moreover, this FREE program can help you to create a factory recovery partition, make system backup and restore in case of your system crashes, and you can use it to restore your computer to its factory default or a previously backed up state by pressing "A" during the process of system startup."

Looks interesting - thanks for info

Cool! Let the trials begin!

I was looking at their software and I noticed it's free for commercial use, I have been using Easeus products for a while now and I'm about to upgrade to newer versions. I think I'll give the Aomie software a chance here before I spend the cash. Thanks for the info!

The company I buy a lot of refurbished PCs from uses this on quite a few of the machines we get. I suppose those they doesn't have the recovery discs for etc. Looks good.

 

[Markverhyden]

Thanks. I've heard of AOMEI but have never tried it.

Playing with it a little. I would like to use this as replacement for the old Steady State for some of my problem users.

 

[Porthos]

I have been using it after all nuke and paves before I restore user files to make an easy to access "factory" recovery partition.

 

[cypress]

Thanks I may just have to give it a try.

I have used Aoemi Backupper for a few months now and will give it 5 stars. So far, no issues and fast!
I like that you can create 2 different bootable PE iso. 1 for non UEFI and 1 for UEFI.

I have to give this one a try also.

Thanks.

Questions:

You need to select one of your existing partitions (here is D: drive) on system disk to divide some space (the size depends on how big your system partition is) for creating a factory recovery partition, which includes system backup image file and AOMEI OneKey Recovery bootable environment."
.....

• If there is already enough unallocated space on the system disk, the program will automatically select it to make a factory recovery partition. In other words, this step will be skipped, and the program will directly enter to the next step.

So if I get a PC in, and I want to make a 'system state backup', and HDD has just a C partition, do I need to create a second partition first, using another program?

Thanks.

It will make a hidden restore partition for you.

After testing this out over the last few days it does what it claims and works well so far. Nice utility, thanks

I've also used AOMEI Backupper Professional for about 4 months.
It has always been reliable.

I'll give a try to AOMEI OneKey Recovery on a Test ring...

Sounds good

 

[mlcomputers]

Looks interesting I have been using their backupper software for quite some time with no problems.

 

[Larry Sabo]

I tried it the other day but it failed during the PE session for some reason (forget the reason, as I was busy). I told it to place the recovery partition at the end of C:, expecting it to shrink C:, create the new partition, then create the recovery image. I'll have to try it again.

I've also had it fail during the PE session on a Vista SP2 Dell. Couldn't find a specific driver (I forget which one). I like their Backupper, but so far not impressed this one.

 

[Larry Sabo]

Yes, that's what the reason was, couldn't find a driver. Didn't have time to pursue it. I hope they fix it, as it would save a lot of time restoring Windows and data.
