Microsoft and Windows are trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the U. S. The only warranties for HP products and services are set forth in the express warranty statements accompanying such products and services. [. . . ] There is a weekly reminder that you can indicate to ignore, remind the user later, or never remind again. After fourth time the reminder displays, it will automatically not display again. NOTE: You can perform scheduling only on the local system. NOTE: There is currently no functionality that allows an Administrator to force users to perform backups. Passwords HP Backup and Recovery Manager offers password protection. Passwords protect Entire Drive Backups as well as individual file backups. Passwords are independent of users or systems. NOTE: There is no password protection for Recovery Points. You can password protect an initial Entire Drive Backup; however, because the Initial Recovery Point contains little user data, and passwords are meant to protect sensitive data, the Initial Recovery Point and incremental Recovery Points together are not password protected. ENWW Managing HP Backup and Recovery Manager 9 Compression HP Backup and Recovery Manager uses compression. The compression ratio depends on the data on the disk and can range between 30% and 70%. Encryption You can encrypt "individual file and folder" backups. The encryption algorithm is a simple encode based on logical XORs and bit rotations. Only HP Backup and Recovery Manager can read the encryption. NOTE: The backup should not be considered as "protected" since no password/key is involved. When backing up encrypted files in an EFS file system, the files backed up remain encrypted. Backup and Recovery Manager will recover ProtectTools encrypted files. Note that you can only recover encrypted files on the system where they were created unless the Embedded Security credential data is migrated to the new system where the files will be recovered. Information on migrating Embedded Security credential data is provided in the ProtectTools help files. Integrated F11 hotkey support HP Backup and Recovery Manager supports the integrated F11 hotkey for the HP Boot Recovery Partition. The functionality of HP Backup and Recovery Manager is not affected by a BIOS with the integrated F11 hotkey. If the F11 BIOS is enabled (through setup), then the BIOS will check for the existence of the volume label entry that identifies the Recovery Partition. Enabling/disabling features You currently cannot customize HP Backup and Recovery Manager. There are no user actions that can enable/disable features. Only HP development can remove or disable features. Master Boot Record (MBR) reset after reloading custom operating system If you format a hard disk on a computer with HP Backup and Recovery Manager installed, then install a new operating system but do not reset the Master Boot Record, the following message displays each time the computer boots: Warning: Your system recovery partition was removed. Press F10 to start the system recovery anyway or another key to delete the recovery partition. HP Backup and Recovery Manager modifies the default MBR, which also displays the Press F11 to restore your system message. [. . . ] 8. Click Yes to confirm you want to perform the recovery. After the recovery is complete, click Restart to reboot the computer. You have to reboot after the recovery process. Restoration and name duplication The backups created by Backup and Recovery Manager are only intended to be recovered onto the system on which the backup was created. However, you can restore Backup and Recovery Manager media on other machines. [. . . ]
