Drive Snapshot is a lightweight, powerful disk imaging software for Windows that backs up storage drives into a single image file.
Core Features
- Live backups: Creates exact disk images while Windows is running without requiring a system reboot.
- Virtual drive mounting: Mounts backup images as virtual drives to easily browse, compare, or copy individual files.
- Broad file system support: Fully compatible with Windows formats (FAT16, FAT32, NTFS) and Linux formats (EXT2/3/4, Reiser, XFS).
- Command Line Interface: Supports CLI automation, allowing administrators to schedule recurring background backups easily.
- Portable and compact: Functions as a tiny executable file with no installation required, making it ideal for IT rescue disks.
- Snapshot creation: Locks the current data state using Volume Shadow Copy technology to ensure data consistency.
- Data compression: Compresses the operating system, settings, installed software, and personal data into one file.
- Disaster recovery: Restores the entire system state from a Windows Preinstallation Environment (PE) if the OS fails to boot.
