True Image 8 question about creating active partition image
I've successfully used True Image 8 (trial) to create an image of my
primary active parition. I was surprised that it created the image in the background while I was still multi-taking from the desktop. (Older imagers I have used required a reboot to create the image prior to lauching the OS). My question is, how does TI8 create an image of programs that are currently in use? I didn't think that was possible without corruption. Can TI8 be trusted to make reliable images of active primary partitions? Thanks for the info. |

This somewhat inaccurate, but think of programs "in use" as being memory-resident copies of what is on the disk as executable files (.exe). It's what is on the *disk* that is being copied, not what's in memory. *TimDaniels* |

Thanks everyone for your replies, feedback, and links. That's pretty
much what I wanted to know. Looks like I'll be picking up TI8. |
