        <description><![CDATA[When you right-click an item (on a protected drive) and select &quot;Restore previous version&quot;, you are presented with a dialog, as shown in the original article here. You get the choice to &quot;Open&quot;, &quot;Copy...&quot;, or &quot;Restore&quot;. Only by clicking &quot;Restore&quot; do you have the potential to lose or overwrite data. If you click Open, for a Word document for example, you can just use &quot;Save as...&quot; within Word to make a new document copy of the old version; just don't touch the current one.  If you click &quot;Copy...&quot; you are immediately given the opportunity to save the file in a different location from the original. No data loss.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[but you can tell it to use as much or as little as you want. It can hold a surprising amount of data depending of what's changed and when space is used up it deletes the oldest snapshot(s).I don't see the malware issue. This isn't System Restore. You choose which files or folders you want to restore and what version. In addition, you choose what partitions you apply it to so you can leave out your system drive.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Using Shadow Copy need not &quot;almost always&quot; result in loss of data or time and effort. The article appears to completely ignore the &quot;Copy&quot; button in the restoration dialog - is this why it's called Shadow Copy...? Yes, it will let you make a new copy of the old version. Seems obvious, huh?Sloppy reporting.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[&quot;In the System Properties window (Figure B), click the System Protection link on the left-hand side of the screen. It is odd, but I could find no keyword that would lead me directly to the System Protection screen from the Desktop Search. The intermediate step to System Properties seems to be required.&quot; You can use sysdm.cpl as a shortcut to System Properties, which gets you closer to the System Protection tab located there.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[For a couple of our large file shares, we definitely take advantage of it. We adjusted the default times a bit to meet our needs and it has been a lifesaver for a number of workers since the document they needed wouldn't have been in the nightly backup. It's also much quicker than restoring from LTO and you can do it right on the user's computer with them logged in.]]></description>

        <link><![CDATA[http://www.techrepublic.com/forum/discussions/102-337093-3371413]]></link>
        <description><![CDATA[We can explore files in Shadow Copy store online with ShadowExplorer, but does someone know how to do it offline? Because when Windows doesn't boot or System Restore doesn't work due to system file/registry corruption, it would be great if a previous backup can be taken from Shadow Copy (System Restore) store to rescue the system.Thanks!]]></description>
