TeraByte Drive Image Backup and Restore Suite

Version 4.04 made available on February 25, 2025

Image for Windows provides an easy and convenient way to completely backup all your hard drive’s data, programs and operating systems. Your backups can be saved directly to external USB and FireWire™ drives, to internal or network drives, and even directly to CD, DVD, or BD. The suite includes an easy-to-use MakeDisk wizard for creating a recovery boot disk. To restore your data, programs and operating systems back to the way they were when the backup was created, simply boot the recovery disk and restore the partition(s) or drive(s) you need to recover. It’s that easy.

As a key component of the TeraByte Drive Image Backup and Restore Suite, Image for Windows utilizes the technology provided by Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) or PHYLock™, an add-on component included in the suite. VSS and PHYLock™ allows you to continue using your computer while the backup is locked to a point-in-time. This eliminates the inconsistencies typically experienced while backing up a partition that is in use.

Image for Windows runs under the Windows operating system, yet it can backup or restore any partition, including those of DOS or Linux, and even partitions encrypted by third-party software.

The TeraByte drive image files produced by Image for Windows are compatible across all TeraByte Unlimited disk imaging products of the same major version number (i.e. all 3.x products are compatible with other 3.x products). This gives you the flexibility to restore disk images using your component of choice.

The TeraByte Drive Image Backup and Restore Suite includes Image for Windows, Image for Linux, Image for DOS, and the OSD Tool Suite. Image for DOS and Image for Linux support the same powerful drive image functionality without requiring a working Windows installation.

Bonus: The TeraByte OS Deployment Tool Suite (TBOSDTS) Pro version contains a set of powerful scripts that, among other things, will help you deploy Windows to completely different hardware.

Compatible with Windows x86, x64 and ARM64 versions.

Какой самый надёжный способ сохранить данные и восстановить повреждённую Windows? Ответ очевиден — создать их резервную копию и сохранить на свободный раздел, а ещё лучше на отдельный диск. Не поэтому ли программы для резервного копирования пользуются такой популярностью? Но меньше слов, больше дела. Сегодня мы хотим познакомить вас с малоизвестной в Рунете, но достаточно мощной и эффективной программой для создания резервных копий дисков и разделов Windows под названием Image for Window.

Разработанной американской компанией TeraByte Unlimited.

Загрузить актуальную версию приложения можно по ссылке www.terabyteunlimited.com/downloads-image-for-windows.htm. Процедура инсталляции стандартна. После установки на рабочем столе будет создано три ярлыка: Image for Window, TBMount и TBView. Первый отвечает за запуск самой программы, второй запускает утилиту монтирования созданных резервных копий как раздела, третий запускает средство просмотра содержимого разного типа образов, в том числе ISO.

Перед тем как приступать к созданию резервной копии, рекомендуем создать загрузочный диск, он пригодится, если система окажется настолько повреждена, что не сможет самостоятельно загрузиться. Запись загрузочного носителя выполняется с помощью мастера, который тут же предложит вам два варианта: создание диска восстановления на основе WinRE и на основе WinPE. Представляющая собой миниатюрную операционную систему среда WinPE имеет больше возможностей, чем простая загрузочная среда WinRE, но для работы с Image for Window вполне хватит и второй, к тому же WinPE требует загрузки дополнительных компонентов Windows AIK/ADK.

Выбираем WinRE и жмем «Далее». Настройки можно пропустить, принципиально важного они ничего не содержат, поля для заполнения лицензионными данными оставляем пустыми, жмем «Далее», затем «Next», выбираем опцию по умолчанию «Crеate a TBWinRE CD, USB Flash Drive (UFD), or ISO file», затем нажимаем «Start». После того как необходимые данные будут собраны, появится окошко утилиты «MakeDisk», в котором вам нужно будет указать, в каком виде вы хотите сохранить загрузочный носитель, то есть записать его сразу же на CD/DVD или в ISO файл.

Программой поддерживается четыре основных операции: создание копии диска, восстановление копии диска, валидация резервной копии и клонирование компьютера. Чтобы получить доступ к большему числу функций, зайдите в настройки, слева на вкладке снимите птичку с чекбокса «Простые операции», справа включите кнопку «Отдельные флажки» или «Связанные флажки». После этого вы сможете создавать бекапы не только целых физических дисков, но и логических томов. Создадим для примера резервную копию системного раздела.

В главном окне выберите «Backup» -> «Full», отметьте в следующем окне загрузочную запись и системные разделы, нажмите «Далее» и укажите диск или раздел для сохранения бекапа и опять нажмите «Далее». Затем следует завершающая настройка параметров резервного копирования. На этом этапе вы можете включить/отключить проверку копии, копирование файлов гибернации и подкачки, выбрать уровень сжатия и установить на резервную копию пароль. Мы оставим всё по умолчанию. Жмем «Далее» и «Старт», после чего начинается процедура резервного копирования.

Бекап будет сохранён в указанном расположении в виде контейнера TBI. Теперь представим, что Windows оказалось повреждена и не может загрузиться. Загружаемся с ранее подготовленного диска, заходим в настройки и снимаем флажок с чекбокса «Простые операции». Тут же есть интересная опция «Использовать новую MBR». Если вы её задействуете, программа создаст новую загрузочную запись. Поскольку мы включали MBR в резервную копию, попробуем отключить опцию. Возвращаемся в главное окно, жмём «Restore» и выбираем режим восстановления.

Режима два: Автоматический и Нормальный (с запросом параметров). Выберем второй, а заодно посмотрим, что за параметры предложит нам мастер восстановления. Жмем «Далее» и указываем путь к нашему файлу TBI. Далее отмечаем восстанавливаемые разделы, в нашем примере это область «Зарезервировано системой» и основной системный. В следующем окошке выбираем целевой диск и внимательно смотрим, какие данные будут перезаписаны. Если в чём-то сомневаетесь, обратите внимание на лаунчер слева, на его панели есть утилита TBI View, благодаря которой можно просмотреть содержимое дисков и разделов.

Традиционно жмём «Далее», отмечаем дополнительные опции (мы всё оставили как есть) и запускаем процедуру восстановления. По её окончании завершаем нажатием кнопки «Shut down» на панели лаунчера работу ПК, восстанавливаем приоритет загрузки с жёсткого диска и загружаемся. В итоге получаем полностью восстановленную рабочую операционную систему, по крайней мере, в нашем случае все прошло гладко и без каких-либо ошибок.

Теперь что касается минусов. По сравнению с популярными в Рунете программами для резервного копирования, да хотя бы с тем же Acronis True Image, Image for Window наверняка покажется менее удобной, главным образом из-за возможной путаницы при выборе разделов, так что начинающему юзеру, если он таки решит использовать её в качестве основного инструмента резервирования, нужно быть предельно внимательным.

На сайте разработчика есть русификатор, но похоже с ним тоже не все гладко. Согласно инструкции, языковой файл ifwlang.dll нужно забросить в папку C:\Program Files\TeraByte Unlimited\Image for Windows\V2, но в версии Complete Suite, для которой он как раз доступен, такой папки нет, есть каталог «TeraByte Drive Image Backup and Restore Suite» и именно в него нужно забрасывать файл русификации. Перевод качественный, но неполный, будьте готовы к тому, что наименования некоторых опций будут отображаться на английском. А ещё Image for Window платная. Испытательный срок составляет 30 дней без ограничения функционала, после чего вам придется либо приобрести лицензию, либо удалить программу с компьютера.

Image for Windows is a disk imaging utility for Microsoft Windows developed by TeraByte Unlimited. When first released in 2002, it was one of two disk imaging software products that could create a consistent point-in-time backup of Windows while Windows was running.^{[citation needed]}

The point-in-time technology used by Image for Windows consists of using a special driver, named PHYLock, that effectively redirects data being overwritten by Windows to a holding cache. Since Microsoft’s introduction of the Volume Shadow Copy Service (vssvc.exe), this technology concept is now generally available to any Windows based backup software.

Image for Windows supports Windows NT 4.0 and later. It supports both x86 and x64 versions of Windows.
