Controlling Shadow Copies in Vista (and Windows 7!) | |
|
||
| Time: 08:28 EST/13:28 GMT | News Source: PC Magazine | Posted By: Andre Da Costa | ||

Shadow Copies is the informal term for Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS), also known as "Previous Versions." All three names point to the same feature: the automatic saving of copies of files. The purpose of the service is to allow you to restore these backups of files that you have lost for any reason—file corruption, for example. VSS works in conjunction with both System Restore and Windows Backup. | ||

| For Vista Home versions Mozy adds a right mouse command to restore the previous version that otherswise is not readily available except in the higher priced spreads. |

| This is one of my favorite Vista features, and personally I think it's worth it if for no other reason. What makes it especially useful is that the shadow copies are available remotely as well--very useful if you want to grab that Word doc email attachment someone edited and saved into the ether. Rather than walking them through navigating to the hidden temp folder, you can just do it for them via the admin share and plop it on their desktop. |
