I asked hit access to that beta a while back. No access here either Sent from my Pixel 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Nope, didn't know about it. And for the review i shouldn't have too. A drive clone should make an exact copy of the boot info and fire right up, it shouldn't need repairing. If ATI can do it right the first time without needing boot record repair, then so should MR. I've never had any problems with it recognizing internal or external drives (not even my nvme based m.2 drive in a USB enclosure). It always saw them before, during and after the clone, and did what it should do and do it right, on the first try. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

I'm currently using acronis on recommendation from over of my fav tech YouTubers because although MR worked flawlessly for me drive BACKUP wise, I've never had a successful drive CLONE with it when I upgraded systems from a HDD to an SSD. The systems NEVER booted even though I selected all partitions, there was always a boot problem. Every single time something was wrong with either the BCD or the EFI partition. Retrying multiple times with Linux vs winPE based media changed nothing. Acronis has worked for me every single time, the first try. But last year they moved into the cyber security market (think antivirus, anti-malware, anti-ransomware) and true image got bloated and renamed to 'Cyber Security Home Office' and I don't like it 1 bit. I may have to give MR another shot. I still have my V6 full and V7 upgrade key. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

I sure was for anystream, yeah that's me over there. Same username. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

I'll have to tinker with it, but I'd love to do it with the beta [emoji846] Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

All of them, i had this issue in the past on win 10 where my settings didn't get stored properly in the registry (not using portable version), so i had to resort to exporting the IMGBURN registry branch. But new settings don't seem to 'stick'. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Bummer I guess, wish I was. I have a feeling IMGBURN isn't saving my settings correctly. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

No we don't. Just because something hasn't been updated in a while, doesn't mean it stops working entirely. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

For IMGBURN? I never saw any. Got a link to them or a topic? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

To be precise, it's a java processing primarily found on APACHE that's used in webservers Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

That's The standard for structure of any dvd. Nothing special about it Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

The locking is indeed a windows native function. Imgburn requests the OS to lock the drive, to prevent YOU the user from accidentally ejecting the disc mid-burn and thus wasting a disc. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Guess I'm lucky then I have a bh16ns40, bh12 and gh22 I think that are still working for me side I got them around initial release. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

That I'm afraid is incorrect. Win 10 uses the same generic optical drive driver that's existed in 8(.1) and 7. It's not a driver problem. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Dvdfab nice? It's overcomplicated expensive crap, and no better than nero or norton of you ask me. Anydvd+CloneBD+CloneDVD2: lean, mean disc backup machine. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Go is french. Stands GigaOctet (giga 8) or something, which does indeed mean Gigabyte (8bits in a byte, so that's probably why they named it that way). Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

It doesn't. I don't know where you read that, but imgburn only burns what you feed it. It doesn't convert anything. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Sounds to me your drive is faulty. You say it yourself that you used MULTIPLE different software products to read dvds. It's EXTREMELY unlikely that ALL of them break simultaneously while the drive itself would be fine. The opposite is a lot more likely, that the drive is faulty and the software isn't. The driver is a generic one they have changed since windows 7. This isn't very likely an imgburn problem, to your drive is probably dead. As you mention yourself, it's been a while since you last used it Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

I believe your MID is the problem. Those umedisc ones I believe those m-discs no? Not every burner likes those. Even less than crappy ritek one's. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

@dbminter they work on the redfox forums too. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Yes, I know and that requires specialist software. Ctrl+c and ctrl+v isn't a clone Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Which won't work here. At least not with the boot drive. This approach would copy the files of the C drive, but not all of them (protected system files and permission) and it certainly wouldn't copy of hidden system partitions Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

And now try again without the caps. That said you said you wanted to do a full drive backup. Now you say movies, which is it? Anyway if you want to turn your folders into iso's that is something imgburn can do. It's infact one of the main buttons when you start the program. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Then there's also the fact that 1 batch of blanks aren't necessarily the same as the next batch. Even more so with the crappy quality of ritek. They're no good to begin with. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Can't be done with imgburn, that's a task for specialist software like acronis true image or macrium reflect Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
