I am using NTI Backup Now EZ 7 on Windows 10. Where is the 'override old backups' option?
In NTI Backup Now EZ 7, the "override old backups" option is not available. NTI Backup Now EZ is designed to create incremental backups, which means it only backs up new or modified files since the last backup.
When you run a backup with NTI Backup Now EZ, it automatically detects and backs up only the changes made to your files, ensuring an efficient backup process. This approach helps save storage space by not duplicating unchanged files.
If you want to create a full backup instead of an incremental one, you can delete the existing backup files manually and perform a new backup. However, keep in mind that this will consume more storage space and increase the backup time.
It's worth noting that the available options and features may vary slightly depending on the version and configuration of NTI Backup Now EZ you are using. If you have a specific requirement or need further assistance, I recommend referring to the product's documentation or contacting NTI's customer support for precise instructions.

NTI Shadow 5 gets altered
If the hard drive it's loaded on is very old or is almost full, then either replace the hard drive or get an external hard drive and install it there.

I used a Toshiba 1/2
Maybe the restore function only works with the original piece of equipment. Ouch.
You might want to contact the manufacturer of the software to see if they have a fix or solution. Good luck!
My computer crashed, how do I recover my NTI Backup Now EZ program? My computer can't find the NTI setup.exe.
Many people confuse system back-ups with system restore and/or recovery programs. They are very different. A backup makes a copy of selected (or all) files and stores them to a disc, tape, hard drive, or other device that will allow you to protect your files in the event of data loss. Say you accidentally delete an entire directory instead of a single file. Your backup would allow you to re-load that directory. System restore/recovery files are used in the cases where you either want to reload the computer back to a certain condition (factory restore), or need to completely recover your computer in the event of a crash. These types of files usually need one of two things to work. If the recover/restore software was OEM manufacturer supplied, there may be a BIOS routine that, using a hotkey on boot-up, will allow you to access the recovery/restore file. If it is an aftermarket program like your, recovery/restore files usually need to create a bootable USB or CD/DVD that can be inserted on boot-up, and then the files on that device will perform the recovery/restore. If all you have a a system backup, you may have to reinstall the operating system, drivers, and then the backup software. After that, you can use you backup file to recover your remaining programs/data.
How do I stop backup in progress?
1.Log on to the computer by using an account that has administrator rights.
2.Click Start Collapse this imageExpand this im, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER to start the System Configuration Utility.

Note Following this step lets Microsoft services continue to run. These services include Networking, Plug and Play, Event Logging, Error Reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you may permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use the System Restore utility together with existing restore points.
5.Click OK, and then click Restart.
Delete unwanted NTI backups.
- Open the windows explorer and navigate to where the backups are.
- Switch your view to details
- See which backups are the newest, don't delete them
- Delete the rest.
- Configure the Backup process to make fewer backups, like once per month, or one full, then several incremental ones.
C imagean't restore
The partition restoration process is extremely lengthy and time consuming, I would suggest trying to do it overnight and if after that it still seems stuck at 0%, then something must be wrong with the restorer.
Factory Reset
right click on the icon with your mouse and then select format
Remove unwanted backups
Format Hard drive and them backup only 1 time. In the future, create an additional backup and then after that delete the oldest backup. I backup my system about every month.
