Using ConfigSafe
This preinstalled program is a comprehensive configuration tracking and
recovery tool. It provides features that make it easier for you (or support
personnel) to restore your system if your desktop becomes damaged,
unusable, or unstartable.
Highlights of the ConfigSafe program include:
Ÿ
Menu-driven, graphical interface.
Ÿ
Snapshot feature that automatically captures and saves your system
configuration information the first time your computer is started and
there after on a regular schedule. The information includes system
files, hardware configuration, file versions, network connections, and
registry information.
Ÿ
Configuration restoration feature that you can use to restore, in just
seconds, your system to a previous (or the factory-installed)
configuration.
Ÿ
UNDO feature that you can use to undo the last restored changes and
return to the previous configuration.
Ÿ
Automatic tracking of changes made (knowingly or unknowingly) to
your basic system configuration.
Ÿ
Report feature that you can use to generate (and then view or print)
instant reports about system configuration changes. The reports can
provide key information, such as a list of changes that occurred within
the last week or since the factory-installed configuration.
These reports can be helpful to you in troubleshooting your system, or
they can be viewed by or faxed to support personnel for help in
resolving problems.
Ÿ
Ability to work in conjunction with other programs, such as CoSession
Remote, for remote assistance.
