Re: Backing up

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Booting the computer from the Ghost CD, you are able to use the Ghost Image
Browser to restore any single file, or multiple files to your Windows
partition. You can also restore the complete Windows partition/drive.

Please note that True Image does NOT allow you to do this single file
restore on the Windows partition. With TI it is all or nothing.
