It’s the only backup tool I’ve ever used - and I’ve used many of them over the years - that’s never failed to restore and repair my Windows PC when they encounter difficulties. I strongly recommend Macrium Reflect, in either free for for-a-fee versions. All are test/experimental machines I use for research and writing about Windows stuff. I have a 4-pack Reflect 8 Workstation license, and I run Reflect Free on the other 7 machines currently resident here at Chez Tittel. Personally, when something as good and reliable as Macrium Reflect comes along, I believe in supporting its maker with an outright purchase. I particularly like the program’s boot repair facility, its VSS repair and recovery, and its ability to boot backups as Hyper-V VMs. Version 8 builds native Windows 11 rescue media, even though Win10 equivalents still work. Note: the commercial Free license limits the number of instances to 10 per location. Now, it’s simply part of the program’s own routine upgrade behavior.įor most users, the Free version is all they’ll ever need for home or small office use. But this development is nicer, because it means Reflect 7 users get an upgrade to Version 8 without requiring them to find, download and install the new version manually. It also showed up on the Macrium site a couple of weeks ago. Good News for 7 Users: Macrium 8 Free Makes Normal Upgrade AppearanceĪ Macrium Reflect 8 Free download has been available for some time now through Softonic.
In fact, the lead-in graphic for this story shows a Notification that an 8-version update is available. This week, Macrium 8 Free makes normal upgrade appearance, via the tool’s built-in update facility. Over the past 10 days or so, the company has now up-versioned that Free version from 7 to 8. I’m a zealous advocate of Paramount Software UK Ltd’s excellent Macrium Reflect Free backup/restore tool. OK, then: it’s finally making its way into the general Windows user population.
