2) Disable scheduled defragmentation of RollBack Rx protected drives.
3) Disable check disk at startup ..
If you are using windows 7 manager or Windows 8 manager(settings are more or less same)
follow the image below..
(You can also google to disable disk chkup by command prompt or by some registry tweak..)



4) After doing all this, update the Baseline..



Additional Tips:

1) You can keep any folder unaffected from RollBack Rx even after doing rollback to any snapshot.
eg, the DOWNLOADS folder,in which you have downloaded something new and even after doing rollback to some earlier date, the contents in the DOWNLOADS folder will remain intact..

If you don't like the startup RollBack Rx logo and system tray icon, then you can easily disable them..

Enable Access Control and setup a password..

Thanx Roger D for the great info. You answered many questions I had about the product! If I do indeed try Rollback RX it would be the v10 w/meds you posted as I dont have a online key for activation. I have 2 concerns tho, maybe you could answer for me?

1.) I understand that without the newest RollBack Rx 10.2 Build 2696419340 I will eventually run into corruption problems down the road. Is this true? Or is that just with win8 (I use win7)?

2.) I have an EUFI bios and my 1st HDD is GPT partitioned. Will v10 work OK with my HDD? Please see capture below. Thank You!

If it wasn't for UEFI BIOS and GPT Partition type system,Rollback Rx 9.1 would have been OK for Windows 7.You could have gone for v10 but it doesn't support GPT Partitions.So now you should go for 10.2 new build.

so let me get this straight about what each version supports.

v9.1 = No UEFI, No GPT

v10.0 = UEFI. No GPT

v10.2 = UEFI, GPT

I am using Raxco PerfectDisk Professional 12.5 Build 312 and use it least once a week can someone tell me how can i disable defragmentation only for RollBack Pro using Raxco!

I got my answer remove 3rt Party Software which i am not really happy cause defragmentation is important and i don't think RollBack is the best software doing this cause it takes only few min using their defreag. compare with PerfectDisk does proper longer but more efficient one.

Here is what they say!

Rollback team and they responded with the following:

“In order to run any Windows based defragger is to uninstall RollBack Rx. Defrag the hard drive and then re-install RollBack.

There is a reason for why defragging of your drive is not recommended with RollBack Rx. Firstly, all defraggers only defrag files system based on Windows. These defraggers do not understand the sector mapping algorithms of RollBack Rx - in most cases these defraggers see "White Spaces" which in fact are used by RollBack to map the changes between snapshots. Therefore, Defragging is actually causing more file disruption than its intended use.

I will assume that the 3 smileys confirms what each version supports. If in fact I need to use the newest v10.2 then I will have to wait for updated meds. The way you worded ur post above it sounds like the meds you posted wont work with v10.2. Great post tho. I have learned alot.

Yes! they have changed the Activation method after version 10. So now the old medicine is not working any more for version 10.2.

But don't worry I'm sending you the key for online activation for version 10.2.( I have only one key left) :)

Just download the Setup, Install and activate Online..and Don't forget to follow the instructions above...

Enjoy.. :cheers:

Note: Todays newest update still does not address the SSD Trim problem. SSD folks like me are out of luck as far as RollbackRx goes.

Take a look at AX64 Time Machine.

I don't have SSD in my system, so I can't say anything. but if you are really facing the problem then better to wait for the fixed release.. :rolleyes:

It is always recommended to have a clean backup image of your OS with all the latest updates on external drive(s) before installing Rollback Rx.Rollback Rx is used more for convenience rather than security.

[demoneye]

i also use RBX since version 9.X and switch to ax64 ...

[ns870152]

ax64 have many bugs for me: lost files, error registry, sometimes can't incremental backup

I got this message after I made system image on Win8. what should I do? thanks :)

edit: I just realized it has nothing to with system image I made before this. anyway, thank you for your answer. I'm still noob about this.

[AlexCross]

My recommendation is toTurn off Windows system restore, it's pointless if you have RollBack RX.

[ns870152]

I got this message after I made system image on Win8. what should I do? thanks :)

[AlexCross]
