The graphical interface is designed to feel like Windows, and the menu provides access to the included utilities.
The USB can boot a desktop or laptop, access files on the hard drive, rescue and restore XP, Vista and Windows systems, help with fast recovery from Windows crashes, scan and repair viruses, remove junk and temporary files, clean and repair the registry, optimise Windows and memory settings, increase internet connection speed, back up files or folders and recover data after a rebuild. It can also help diagnose hard drive failure, virus infections, partitioning issues, driver failure, intermittent internet connections, password problems and other computer issues.
