It might be no big deal for general Windows PC users, But It is no less than a matter of life and death, for those who store very sensitive and important business documents and/or content on the hard drive.

As well as You can just imagine, What happens when you lose old family photos and videos that matter to you a lot after data loss due to hard drive failure, your own mistake, virus, and any other reason.

This is why, PC experts strongly recommend, backup your data before you look for a data recovery software.

In fact, A data recovery application can not 100% recover lost data. I am saying this out of the personal experience. But most of the PC users either neglect it or find it difficult to back up their data.

On top of that Most of the Windows users even don’t know that Windows has a backup utility.

You must be thinking about what to do to tackle this issue? In this regard, I would like to introduce a feature-rich yet easy-to-use backup software called AOMEI Backupper to you.

Let’s have a bird’s eye view of each of them to know the features of AOMEI Backupper.

Now a bit about some of its worth mentioning features. Though the primary feature of AOMEI Backupper is backup data. But I found it more than a backup software.

Let me first tell you about its main feature.

AOMEI Backupper lets you backup any type of data/content, including photos, videos, audio files, text, documents, etc.

In addition to a file, It also helps you back up the entire hard drive, partition, and folder.

And my personal favorite backup feature is that the entire operating system can be backed up and cloned with a few clicks.

You may enable encryption for backups to set a password on backup.

No one can access or restore data without entering the correct password.

What I Did Not Like In AOMEI Backupper While My Test?

AOMEI Backupper Lacks FTP Backup

Before installing it, I was expecting the FTP backup option, But AOMEI Backupper does not support backup to FTP.

Not Installed AOMEI Backupper, Can’t Restore Backed Up Data

AOMEI Backupper has another shortcoming that I don’t like. Your data is backed up to an image file.

And the problem is that You can’t restore backed-up data without AOMEI Backupper. You’ll have to install it to restore data you backed up earlier.

For example, You back up the data of your PC to an external hard drive and then you want to restore it on your friend’s PC, You can’t do so without it. You’ll have to install it on your friend’s PC.
