Take New Snapshots When Windows Fails to Start Up

If you encounter a complete system crash, you are not even able to start Windows operating system. Before you choose to rollback system to another snapshot from the Rollback Rx Subsystem Console, you can take a new snapshot from the Subsystem Console to preserve your data up to the moment of crash. You can later access the crash snapshot for file recovery.
 

1. Restart the computer. Press the HOME key as you see the Rollback Rx Subsystem Console screen. You will need a user name and password if the Rollback Rx access control is enabled.

 

2. Click on "Take snapshot" button. You need to enter a name and description for the new snapshot. Click on "Next" to take the new snapshot instantly.

* Snapshot name is limited to 20 characters.
* Snapshot description is limited to 50 characters.

By taking a snapshot of the crashed system, you preserve whatever it is available in that crashed system. After you rollback the system to an earlier snapshot, you can search the snapshot of the crashed system for possible data recovery.
