No code for me either. Registered twice, Says thank you for registering and the code will come in my email, but nothing and it has been all day.
I followed the instructions, and I got this :
“Your request has been successfully confirmed.Please note that generating the license can take up to a few hours depending on the number of requests. All inquiries are processed in the order in which they were made.”
30 seconds later, the registration credentials were in my mail box. Nice one !
HORRIBLE installation process. Will NOT install in Win10 x64 HP with administrator privileges. Waited most of day to get the license at my [email protected] email, but it never arrived. Used my academic email and it showed up almost immediately. Tried to install it a half dozen times, but it aborts at the end due to inability to either stop/restart applications OR to proceed and require later reboot. What an unprofessional product. Waste of time.
Ho richiesta la bellezza di quattro volte la via e-mail la chiave di attivazione ma essa non e mai arrivata quale il motivo?
Vi scrivo ora che sono le ore 23.52′ e ed amcora sto aspettando quanto da Voi dichiarato. Tanti saluti a risentirci.So… How do I change the language?
Been trying to get a serial number all day. From the comments, this appears to be a common theme!
[@Alan] Your question was how much space is needed on your backup drive? I don’t know this particular software, and whether it compresses the data, and how well it compresses. It may also create some sort of index or datafile of checksums to help if there’s a problem on the backup drive. Also don’t know if it creates an exact image (so any unused space on your hard drive is also copied over), or how full your hard drive is. So, as a guess, I’d say you need anywhere from .5 to 1.5 TB for a 1 TB drive.
Also keep in mind, it’s very nice to be able to make more than one image. So, for example, week 1 you make image A, week 2 you make image B, week 3 you write over image A. Week 4 you write over image B. Keep alternating. Much safer. Best is if image A and B are on two separate drives in case one goes bad. They can be on the same drive, it all depends on how valuable your data is and how often it changes.
I use Zools to send recent changes to a cloud backup, very critical changes I copy right away to MS OneDrive, and I use Macrium Reflect (free version is great) to do a more complete backup. Macrium does not spend time copying unused space, and it can do full backups of drives or partitions, plus incremental backups where only things that are different from the last full backup are included in the backup. You can “mount” a backup disk and read or copy any file from it, or you can restore the whole thing. It’s got a steeper learning curve than the O&O program offered here, but I expect it will save a lot on space and time. I have a 6 TB backup drive, 3.5 TB of storage on my PC across two hard drives and an SSD. Backup drive has room for 2 full backups and 2 or 3 incremental backups. That’s just my experience, yours may be different!
I have never received a key response from O&O at my normal ISP-bound email address: there’s something about it that their environment doesn’t like (or possibly something about them that my ISP’s environment doesn’t like and simply discards without notification, but that would probably not explain the problems that others here are having). Using Gmail has always worked for me though.
The main thing that their product offers that good free disk imagers usually don’t is the facility to restore to different hardware. I haven’t tried that, but if it’s implemented competently (i.e., such that it restores working and activated operating systems and third-party applications, which in the case of the latter might require restoring disk and partition IDs) it could be a life-saver.
I wrote my email in the link page but when clicking on “send me a license” this second link is not working so no license available/received. best regards.
Update I finally got the email and license key. It took a while.
I received my free licence within a minute, and had no problem installing and registering the free version 12 with the code I was sent. I was so impressed that I decided to buy version 15 and another O&O backup program in a bundle I was offered at a large discount.
For me, this was one of the best pieces of professional software that I’ve found on SoS or any other giveaway site. Thanks to Ashraf and the developers.
