Paramount Software heeft een nieuwe versie 7.1 van Macrium Reflect uitgebracht . Met dit programma kan een diskimage van een partitie of harde schijf worden gemaakt. Naast de gratis versie zijn er ook betaalde uitvoeringen die verschillende extra's bieden, zoals het kunnen maken van een bestandsback-up of een incrementele back-up, versleuteling en het terugzetten van een back-up naar andere hardware dan waarop hij is gemaakt.
Vanaf versie 7.1 is de gratis uitvoering niet langer alleen voor privégebruik, maar mag deze nu ook in commerciële omgevingen worden gebruikt. Verder is er Image Guardian, die back-upbestanden moet beschermen tegen ongeautoriseerde aanpassingen, zijn er verbeteringen aangebracht met betrekking tot virtuele images en zijn er diverse problemen verholpen. Sinds versie 7.1.2646 zijn nog de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen aangebracht:
Fixed in version 7.1.2718Fixed in version 7.1.2697
- Macrium Image Guardian would still be active when 'Restart service on reboot' was selected in the settings dialog. This has been resolved.
- Macrium viBoot could incorrectly mount an MBR style disk, stored within an image file, as a GPT disk - if the disk had previously been initialized as a GPT disk. This has now been resolved.
Fixed in version 7.1.2695
- German language customers could experience a program crash when accessing the Macrium Image Guardian settings dialog. This has been resolved.
- Security Update for Scheduled Tasks using Windows Task Scheduler 1.0
This updates includes changes for the Anniversary Update and later installs of Windows 10 when manually scheduling backups using the Windows Task Scheduler 1.0 outside of Macrium Reflect. To overcome a process elevation bug in MS Windows Task Scheduler 1.0, scheduled tasks calling 'Reflect.exe' would automatically bypass UAC for all user groups. This could lead to a potential security threat allowing a Standard user to create and execute backups of sensitive data. This functionality is now disabled. Macrium Reflect v7 uses Windows Task Scheduler 2.0 so there is no action to take regarding this change for normal scheduling of tasks in Macrium Reflect.- Security Update for Pre and Post VSS backup scripts
This update includes changes to the pre and post VSS snapshot script funtionality described in the KB article: Stopping the SQL Server service automatically when backing up. This functionality is now Off by default and must be enabled by creating the following registry entry:Please also see this KB article Best Practises for saving Macrium Reflect backup definition files

In rare cases, Mailbox Restore would be fail to restore email recipients if the recipient data contained flagged property values. This has been resolved.- Workstation Edition - Backup Events

When restoring a BitLocker unlocked partiton, if the target partiton had been shrunk since the image was created then Reflect would incorrectly preform a 'Live' BitLocker restore. This has been resolved.
