The Good
* Has multiple very useful tools including, but not limited to, data recovery/transfer, access to the internet, and MBR repair.
* Fairly easy to use.
* Allows you to burn directly onto a CD/DVD or create an ISO.

The Bad
* This "Special Edition" does not include WinPE (only Linux based CD is supported for this version).
* "File Transfer Wizard' is not properly reading or writing CD/DVDs.
* "Undelete Partition" only allows you to scan free disk space on your HDD.
* No native support to create a bootable USB.

In my professional experience the most common cause of boot fsilure is a damaged unreadable sector either in the filesystem data structures that point to the critical boot files or in one of the boot files itself, windows then gets stuck in a boot for a bit then reset and try again loop. In almost all cases this is resolved by using a utility to force the remap at the drive firmware level so the sector loads, even if it contains invalid data, in cases where it affects file system structural integrity diskcheck would then automaticaly do its best to rebuild the data lost and usually suceed. or windows file protection would restore a fresh copy of the affected file...

Why all that waffle? I see no mention of that fundimental function in this Reskue Kit (professional version) which I view as a serious omission. Still going to download it and give it a try just out of curiosity though!

HINT #1:
Registering at Paragon´s is NOT necessary!

De-compress the included .iso file with a packer and burn this image (ImageBurner etc) The .exe archive is not really protected and you dont´t need the serial to extract the file!!!)

Hint#2 - WARNING:
For non-profis I wouldn´t suggest to just try out all funtions of the rescue system just for fun! - you might get boot problems wich are not serious, but not easy to handle with limited knowlege!

Reading some of the comments here is kind of ridiculous. The ISO is actually hidden inside of 'setup.exe' and you will need to provide a serial for it to automatically burn the ISO onto a disk. However, if you use WinRAR or some other software, you can extract the ISO hidden inside of 'setup.exe' so that you don't need to provide any serial number by Paragon to burn it. Regarding the software itself, it is a software that runs off of a disk when you first start up a computer which is the reason why they provide an ISO (a disk image) so that you can burn it to a media so that it can be used by inserting into the optical drive when the computer starts.

How does this related to Paragon Rescue Kit? Well, that file you have there IS Paragon Rescue Kit. It's just an image of the software that you must burn to a media and apparently it seems that your computer default application for burning ISO files is NCH Express Burn so I'm guessing that you have that application installed on your computer. Anyway, if you don't really even understand about what's going on and even end up asking such a question, I recommend that you should not mess with this software because who knows, you might really end up making your system unbootable because you don't know what you're doing.

>> I burnt the iso file to a disk ..and then what??????????????????
>> Is there is an easy steps to install the program?..Thanks
You got bootable CD with Rescue Kit utility. Now you can boot your computer with that CD and run Rescue Kit. There's no installation package to install to Windows.

#8
>> I’d like to know more about this “Easily remove any windows OS
>> password” feature and if it can be booted of a USB or CD/DVD.
Rescue Kit is bootable CD/DVD. It has Password Cleaner tools that resents Windows account's password in case you forgot it.

#10
Not to upset you, but it's not quite correct to compare Rescue Kit and True Image. Rescue Kit is not backup utility, it is a tool to fix boot problems, wipe data, reset password. It also helps to save docs and files to safe place if Windows doesn't boot, but it doesn't allow to backup the system on regular basis as True Image. Paragon Drive Backup does it.

#19
>> Where is the ISO? The zip file includes the setup.exe
>> and a readme file. Am I missing something here?
Just run setup.exe, it will start Unpack and Burn Wizard which will help you to create bootable CD or DVD with Rescue Kit on it.
