Introduction
Paragon Rescue Kit™ 14 Free is an integrated set of powerful tools that is specially designed to tackle most of the
problems you might face while using PC. Its primary objective is to provide all the necessary facilities to get the system
back on track when it fails to boot or at least to retrieve valuable data from the failed hard disk. But that is not all the
product can be used for. With Rescue Kit 14 you can easily recover an accidentally deleted partition, clean user
passwords for Windows NT/2000/XP/Vista/2003/7/8/2008/2012, edit Windows registry, etc.
In this manual you will find the answers to many of the technical questions, which might arise while using the program.
Our company is constantly releasing new versions and updates to its software, that's why
images shown in this manual may be different from what you see on your screen.
What’s New in Rescue Kit 14
Enhanced backup format.
Paragon introduces a pVHD (Paragon Virtual Hard Drive) format – a special VHD,
optimized for storing backups of virtual and physical machines. It’s very efficient in handling incremental chains,
data de-duplication and synchronization. pVHD allows obtaining backups that are up to four times smaller than
original backup objects. What you get by using pVHD:
-
-
-
Incremental imaging works much faster and rock-stable in comparison with the old PBF;
Only pVHD images can be used to do immediate virtualization;
With the new backup technology, Paragon has also achieved easy support of any virtual containers (VMDK,
VHD, VHDX).
In the current version the pVHD support has a promotional goal. In future releases pVHD
will gradually take the primary role.
Uplifted Recovery Media Builder.
Paragon’s Recovery Media Builder can help you prepare either Linux or
WinPE-based bootable environment on a USB thumb drive or in an ISO file (previously only creation of WinPE
images on USB was supported).
Uplifted Linux Recovery Environment.
Started from Rescue Kit 14 the Linux-based recovery environment is
based on SuSe 12.3 (more hardware devices supported) and includes:
-
-
P2P Adjust OS Wizard to successfully migrate a Windows physical system to a different hardware platform
(P2P);
uEFI fixup to clone, restore, migrate 64-bit Windows systems configured to the uEFI boot mode;
Windows 8.1 support.
Our product has been tested to work fine on Windows 8.1 RTM.
New user-friendly interface:
-
-
Metro-style Express Launcher;
GUI of the Linux recovery environment has also been uplifted.

Product Components
In order to cope with different tasks, the product contains several components:
Linux/DOS based recovery environment
is a multi-platform bootable media that enables to run utilities under
Linux or PTS DOS, and that way to get access to your hard disk for maintenance or recovery purposes. Both
platforms have their strong sides, for instance Linux can boast support of FireWire (i.e. IEEE1394) or USB
devices. It enables to burn CD/DVD discs. However there can be some difficulties with detecting new hardware.
DOS in its turn has no problems of that kind but is limited in features. The Linux/DOS recovery environment
requires no installation and can be of great help when the system fails to boot. Besides it offers a Windows XP
like environment.
WinPE based recovery environment.
Especially for keen followers of Windows, our product offers the option to
prepare a WinPE based bootable media. Unlike the Linux/DOS recovery environment it can boast an excellent
hardware support and the same interface as the Windows version can. However its system requirements are
much tougher.
Features Overview
This chapter dwells upon key benefits and technical highlights of the product.
Features
Let us list some of the features:
A handy Launcher
to easily find and run the required tasks.
Available location for backup images:
-
Backup to local mounted partitions.
-
Backup to local unmounted (without drive letter assigned) partitions.
-
Backup to an external mounted storage
to provide for a higher level of data protection and system
independence.
-
Backup to a special secured place on the hard disk called the Backup Capsule
that has an independent system
layout (e.g. a separate partition) and will stay operable should the active file system be damaged. To avoid an
accidental removing or unauthorized access of the backup data, this partition is hidden and thus cannot be
mounted in the operating system.
-
Backup to external media (CD/DVD)
to guarantee a high level of data protection as long as the backup media is
kept secure.
-
Backup to a network drive
to stand a better chance of success in case of a hard disk failure.
Sector backup
to save not only all on-disk information but also the system service structures. It is ideal for
making a backup image of an entire hard disk or system partitions to guarantee the operating system’s working
capability.
Restore an entire disk, separate partitions or only files you need
from the previously created backup image.
Undelete Partitions Wizard
to recover an accidentally deleted partition.
File Transfer Wizard
to make such operations as transferring of files/directories or burning of them to CD/DVD
as easy and convenient as possible. Providing access to Paragon backups as regular folders, it may also help to
replace corrupted data from a previously created image in case of an operating system failure.
