Shadow Copy - can you buy it seperately for Home Premium

Jeff

The only piece of functionality that I want that is not on Home Premium is
Shadow Copy. Is there a way of getting Shadow Copy for Home Premium or are
my only choices 1. upgrade to Ultimate, 2. get a separate product like
Acronis?

Thank you,

Jeff

AFAIK you can't install an Ultimate feature into Home versions. Frankly,
Acronis TrueImage is a better solution anyway.

It keeps copies (or versions) of all files you work on, so you can "go back"
if you ***** up.

Malke,

That is what I figured but wanted to confirm.

Thank you.

Unfortunately, Microsoft didn't include the GUI to restore lost files in
the Home Basic/Premium editions, even though the Volume Shadow Copy
Service (VSS) is also included and fully running! But luckily there is a
third party tool at 'ShadowExplorer.com' ()
which allows you to browse the Shadow Copies and restore files if
needed!

Version 0.1 should be a warning to anyone to stay clear.
