Rollback RX is software that uses
very simple and effective techniques to restore systems to a usable
state, or a preferred state. This ability allows users to completely
fix their PC, removing malware and other malicious entities and
bringing the PC back to a specified point in time.
What does this mean to all the files you created or added in between the restore snapshot and now? If you restore it and leave these files, they will be gone. What is the Rollback RX solution to this problem?

Virtual Machine capability within
each snapshot!
It’s very easy with Rollback RX to access the virtual drive of a snapshot. Then, simply drag/drop or copy the files over from your current drive into the Virtual Machine’s drive. This literally throws your files back in time and has them ready in the snapshot you wish to revert to.
Let’s finish this blog post with an example:
Frank is a high-ranking executive at a large corporation. One of his employees recommended he download a particular program in order to learn Spanish, because the South American division of his company is coming to visit their headquarters in the U.S. where Frank works.
The language education software Frank downloaded turned out to be a host for an extremely malicious type of malware that took several days to root itself so deep into his PC that it became unusable. Frank listened to the advice of his employees about these programs before, so this wasn’t the first risky thing he downloaded.
Michael from the company’s IT department took a look at Frank’s PC and concluded that the only way for Frank to fix this issue is to completely reformat it. Luckily for Frank, the company purchased Rollback RX and by default every company computer had an original restore snapshot from when the Windows OS was first installed! Michael tells Frank this, and says he will restore Frank’s PC to its original state, fixing all of the problems piled on from months of usage. However, Frank is worried. He is halfway through writing a massive business plan and he can’t afford to lose it. He almost forgot about it! What if his computer gets restored and he forgot to back up his work?
Michael’s solution is simple. He opens up the PC’s first snapshot and accesses its virtual machine. Then, he finds the files Frank wants, and simply drags them into the virtual machine’s files in the same place. Then, he activates the roll back! Boom! Frank’s PC is clean, and his business plan is in the “same” folder as it was before the restore happened! No mess, no fuss, no worries. Frank is then able to complete his business plan and Michael gets a promotion, finally allowing him to get some fresh air upstairs and have a window in his office. Everyone is happy.
