many versions to save (from zero to an unlimited number). Each time data is modified in the source folders, the backup directory will archive the old copy of the file in a folder named "Revisions" before overwriting it with the newer version.

Restoring Files with NTI Shadow®

NTI Shadow saves files in native format, and this makes the restoration job very easy. You can use either the Drag and Drop method or Quick Restore method. 1) Drag and Drop Native file format backup means there is no need to use any additional software to restore files. Files are backed up in the original state making it easy and simple to restore your files – just Drag and Drop!

2) Quick Restore After selecting a backup job, you can then click on the “Quick Restore” button and choose “Open”. NTI Shadow will automatically take you back to your backup file destination location.

3 Unique features of NTI Shadow®

1) Concurrent Running of Backup Jobs 2) Auto Resume upon reconnect of a lost connection 3) Intelligent USB Device Detection™ 1) Concurrent Running of Backup Jobs It is possible to setup multiple jobs and to execute them concurrently. There is no limit to the number of jobs that you can define to run concurrently.

2) Auto Resume upon reconnect of a lost connection

NTI Shadow is able to resume from a job that has been interrupted from a disconnected drive. Below screenshot shows the message which appears when a job is interrupted, for example when the USB hard drive is disconnected.

When the USB hard drive is plugged in again, the job will resume. You can unplug and remount a drive anytime and the backup with resume where it left of last.

3 jobs are

running

concurrently

here!

3) Intelligent USB Device Detection™ With NTI’s Intelligent USB Device Detection™, the job that is set for a particular USB drive will only work with that drive and no other. This keeps data from accidentally backing up to the wrong drive. When the first USB drive is unplugged and a second USB drive plugged in, NTI Shadow will NOT resume the job even though there is a USB drive with the same drive letter available.

After unplugging the USB

drive, these error windows

pop up and the destination

The Job resumed!

18

This allows a worry-free solution to having multiple drives being used in multiple jobs all without effort on the part of the user.

A USB drive with

Drive Letter “F” is

available! But NTI

Shadow will not

resume!

Note how NTI Shadow is not

resuming and is smart enough

to report the drive as

“Unavailable” and the “Start

Backup” button is grayed out.

NTI Shadow® FAQS

Q1. I set up my backup job to backup my C: drive but when the backup is done I get a

bunch of errors. What do these errors mean? A1. Shadow is a file level backup program and is not designed to backup your entire system. However if you choose the entire C: drive Shadow will try to backup every file it can but any files that are in use or locked by the system will not be accessible. Thus Shadow will report the files it was unable to backup. Q2. I set my backup job to save all revisions where do I find older versions of my file? A2. The files will be in a folder named Revision in the same location as your backup files. Q3. I set up my backup job to backup whenever there is a change. Now if I reboot my

computer do I need to restart my backup? A3. Shadow will automatically start and begin monitoring when the computer is booted and will be docked in the taskbar. Q4. I have set up my backup job but I forgot to include one of my document folders, do I need to create another job? A4. Not necessarily. You can create another job but you can also go in and edit your current job to add the additional folder. Q5. I set up my backup job to backup anytime anything changes but when I delete a file from the source folder it doesn’t delete it from my backup folder, why? A5. When setting up your backup job in the File Revisions screen you need to go into the Options and select the option to “delete the file on the backup destination when the file is deleted on your PC”. By default its set not to delete. Q6. My log file is getting really big how can I clear the log? A6. The log file (Shadow.log) is located in the root of your user name under Documents and Settings simply delete that file and Shadow will generate a new log file. Unfortunately you are not able to edit the existing log file. Q7. I tried to view the log file and I keep getting “The C:\Documents and

Settings\Administrator\NTI-Shadow\Shadow.log file is too large for the Notepad.

Use another editor to edit the file”. What does this mean? A7. This indicates that the log file is too big to be viewed by the notepad and you must either clear the log file or you can use Microsoft WordPad or Microsoft Word to view it. To clear the log file please refer to the FAQ above. Q8. Can I set my backup job so it will backup to my thumb drive? A8. Yes you can backup to any storage device that has a drive letter. Q9. I get an error message that states “The following source folders or files from the

job do not exist” and then it lists a bunch of files. What does this mean? A9. This indicates that the files and/or folders you selected to be backed up are no longer in the same location. Please check your files and folders and make sure they are there or edit your backup job to reflect the changes you have made. Q10. I am setting up my backup job and it doesn’t allow me to use the continuous

mode and I keep getting this message “A file or folder is not stored on your PC has

20

been selected. Because the file changes cannot be monitored, the first option under

‘Schedule your Backup’ has been disabled.” What does this mean? A10. This indicates that the files you have selected to backup are not on your local PC, you probably selected a network location and if the files are not on your local PC they cannot be monitored in real-time for changes so you cannot use the continuous mode you must set your backup to be run on a schedule. Q11. Since I upgraded to Windows Vista, NTI Shadow has been closing down after

being in use for a few minutes or won’t start at all. A11. This usually happens when the program has become unstable and needs to be reinstalled. Uninstall the program, reinstall, and make sure you have the most current update available for Shadow. Q12. I wish to install NTI Shadow on my Windows Vista machine (the original was used on an XP machine that is being replaced). When I run the upgrade program on

the Vista machine it stops and says it cannot find the original program and I only have the option to quit setup. A12. You must first install the original version of Shadow then install the upgrade. Q13: Shadow does not seem to be recognizing the external hard drive as a backup

option. A13: Make sure that you plug in the external hard drive and power it on before starting Shadow. Also, check My Computer to verify the drive is detected by Windows; you may need to initialize or format the drive through the Disk Manager in Windows before it will be recognized by the system. Then Shadow will be able to see it. Q14: While installing Shadow the installation wizard starts, I accept the license

agreement, and I enter my name. But the installation wizard does not enable the

next button, it remains grayed out. A14: After your name you also need to fill in a company name. If you are not installing Shadow on a company PC then input something like “Home” or “Office” then you will be able to click next.
