In archives, store encrypted files in decrypted state
The preset is disabled.
If you do not use the encryption feature available in Windows XP operating systems, simply
ignore this option. (Files/folders encryption is set in Properties -> General -> Advanced
Attributes -> Encrypt contents to secure data).
Check the option if there are encrypted files in the backup and you want them to be
accessed by any user after restore. Otherwise, only the user who encrypted the files/folders
will be able to read them. Decryption may also be useful if you are going to restore
encrypted files on another computer.
These options relate only to file/folder backup.

5.2.7 Media components

The preset is disabled.
When backing up to removable media, you can make this media bootable by writing to it
additional components. Thus, you will not need a separate rescue disk.
Choose the basic components necessary for boot and restoring data on the General tab.
The Apricorn One-Click Restore is a minimal addition to your rescue media, allowing one-
click data recovery from an image archive stored on this media. This means that at boot
from the media and clicking "restore", all data will be silently restored to its original place.
No options or selections such as resizing partitions will be possible.
Under Advanced tab you can select full, safe or both Apricorn EZ Gig II loader versions.
The safe version does not have USB, PC card or SCSI drivers and is useful only in case the
full version does not load.

5.2.8 Additional settings

1. Validate backup archive upon operation completion
The preset is disabled.
When enabled, the program will check integrity of the just created or supplemented archive
immediately after backup.
To check archive data integrity you must have all incremental and differential backups
belonging to the archive and the initial full backup. If any of successive backups is missing,
validation is not possible.
2. Ask for first media while creating backup archives on removable media
The preset is enabled.
You can choose whether to display the Insert First Media prompt when backing up to
removable media. With the default setting, backing up to removable media may be not
possible if the user is away, because the program will wait for someone to press OK in the
prompt box. Therefore, you should disable the prompt when scheduling a backup to
removable media. Then, if the removable media is available (for example, CD-R/RW
inserted) the task can run unattended.
