It is very useful software to backup your important files and also image in your drives. At that same time we can lost important files also because it plays an another work as omitting the files silently. This software not applicable in windows 10 with my experience.

I have been using Norton Ghost for a couple of years now. It is a great tool for backing up my data on a regular basis. It's very user friendly and easy to use. I like the fact that I can schedule backups and it will take care of it. It also has a good recovery feature where I can recover individual files or the whole system. The only downside is that it can be a bit slow at times, but it's nothing too significant. It's a great product overall.
