Rollback Rx is a tool for restoring the PC settings to its former state to a time before a disastrous event occurred such as a virus attack or system crashes. Rollback Rx is similar to the Windows System restore, but is a lot more sophisticated.
The main difference with the Windows System restore is that the latter is able only to restore the system files and not all the data programs and user settings. Windows system Restore is also a much more disk-space consuming application.
Its graphic user interface is easy to use, and the process of restoring your PC is very easy and takes only about 3 seconds. The important point is that you can create a snapshot of your system anytime you wish. Then, if you need to rollback changes, this can be made without problems.
For a single snapshot, Windows system Restore takes approximately 5-15 % of disk space, whereas Rollback Rx uses only 0.1%. The Rollback Rx is the only possible solution for you if Windows cannot boot up.
Since the program operates silently in the background, you can access it prior to Windows and boot up by pressing the ‘Home’ button. With this program, you can also uninstall every software application and update if you are unhappy with it and do not want to use it any more. Rollback Rx guarantees the safe installation of all kinds of programs.
