Active@ Boot Disk starts when youstart your computer from a bootable CD/DVD/BD Disc or USB Flash Media.Active@ Boot Disk supports legacy BIOS boot mode as well as the latest UEFI secure boot on x64 (64bit) architectures.Active@ Boot Disk suggests a customizable user interface starting from version 13. You can createshortcuts for the additional portable user’s tools on the Desktop and in the Start menu the same way asyou do it in Windows Desktop environment. These shortcuts can be saved to USB media and restoredwhen you boot up the system the next time even on the different PC configuration. Network settings andcurrent Display resolution can also be customized and stored to USB the same way.When you use Active@ Boot Disk, you gain access to the drive's data on a physical level, and on alogical level, therefore bypassing the resident operating system. This allows you to lock selected volumesfor your exclusive use. Locking a volume is important if you want to wipe the data residue from anunoccupied space on the drive, create a “clean” data backup or recover files or folders located on yoursystem volumes.When you boot from the local hard drive, the operating system is not capable of locking the existingvolumes. The recovery operation must have exclusive access to the target location. Otherwise if a serviceor another application gains access to the target location, it might write over the files that you are trying torecover, rendering them unrecoverable. 1999 - 2020 LSoft Technologies Inc.
