Description |
| The latest in Roxio's system recovery line, GoBack 3 Deluxe is full of data recovery and system restoration features aimed at restoring a troubled system to a functional state in as short a time as possible. Among its arsenal of fast fixes are a document recovery system this restores files deleted from the Windows recycle bin, a boot manager this lets users to repair operating systems this won't begin at all, and extra. The meat of the program is its drive restoration function, which creates periodic system safe points to which GoBack can revert a system. For example, if a recently installed program causes some sort of failure, GoBack can restore the system to its state prior to the program's installation. Or if the PC worked when the system was booted up but some unknown factor has hosed it, GoBack can revert the system to its startup state. GoBack can catalog several restore points, depending on the amount of available disk drive space it has. One aspect even lets GoBack to revert a system to a particular safe point on a regular basis, which is perfect for PCs in controlled settings. GoBack 3 caters to newbies and experienced users alike. The application is capable of automating everything for hands-off drive preservation, but is in addition fully configurable. The documentation, together online and physical, is thorough and friendly, as are the tutorials, so anyone willing to use the essential time will be effective to get full advantage of GoBack's layered features. The key flaw together with GoBack is its propensity to churn the hard drive nearly incessantly. It's particularly noticeable right afterwards the program is installed and afterwards the customer installs new software. This victimizes owners of older systems lacking DMA hard drives by bogging down nearly everything, from neat Windows Explorer document management to application loading. Modern systems are extra forgiving; however, writes (saving data to the hard drive) are noticeably bottlenecked. GoBack 3 Deluxe isn't a replacement for regular backups of your important data files--it can't save your system in the case of a catastrophic hardware failure--but its wide range of system restore features can greatly cut down the time essential for recovery from a virus, a failed program installation, driver corruption, or other common data problems. --Joel Durham, Jr. |

Goback-confident systems. 2006-07-17 |
| By Nair RB (India) |
| I am sorry to disagree to what have read in one of the reviews, because as far as I know, "GOBACK WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO REVERT A SYSTEM BEFORE THE DATE FROM WHICH IT WAS INSTALLED" since the reverting takes place referring the Goback history (I hope the Gobackio.bin), and the history is logged only after Goback's installation. The software is otherwise of a great help as it recovers the files/system at all of the conditions except during mass system activity, which disables logging, resulting clearing of Goback history and putting the system in haywire. Goback is certainly of a great support and it is highly recommended to PC lovers. |

it WAS a good product, not anymore 2004-10-06 |
| By Kick-Azz-Angel (Amsterdam, The Netherlands) |
Used GoBack for over 3 years on 98SE and w2k.
Brilliant programme, because it saved my "you know what" many many many times.
August 2004:
Firing up my pc, I couldn't get passed the GoBack startup screen.
Restarted again and again and again. No dice.
Symantec suggests to uninstall GoBack with [GB_Prog.exe] (a removal tool they provide: still nothing.
Lost 40 Gb of data and my HD seems to be totally empty.
Bought a new HD, because I still hope to retrieve some of my data (...??) and started from scratch (w2k). Stupidly enough I re-istalled GoBack, because I was so used to it, and because it was such a great life saver and I thought that maybe the problems were due to malware.
GUESS WHAT HAPPENED?
With only a fresh w2k-install and no other software except from Norton anti-virus and GoBack on the system, the same problem started ALL OVER AGAIN.
It's IMPOSSIBLE to get past the corrupted GoBack startup screen and there I was: stuck again!
Horryfing.
For one reason or another, GoBack is CAUSING DIRE problems these days.
Don't even consider using it.

DO NOT USE WITH WINDOWS XP 2004-04-08 |
| By Phil Schonig (Phoenix, AZ) |
| I have used GoBack on Win98 & ME OS in the past with no problems, but when I build three computers using WIN XP PRO, the only nightmare I had was when I installed GoBack, which came with Norton Systemworks. The computers would reboot once the install completed and then would fully lockup. At first I thought I made an install mistake, but after three times of reformating the hard drive and installing all my software (4 hours later each time), the same problem occurred, full lockup. There is NO support from Symantec for their products unless you want to spend $30.00. You can email Symantec Tech Support after spending 20 minutes researching their site for Tech Support email site, but after 3 days, still no response back from Symantec. Save yourself ALOT of problems and DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT install GoBack on your system if you are running Win XP. Restoreit 3.0 seems to work better. Check most of the reviews, which give GoBack one star at best. After spending 12 hours reformating and installing software three (3) times, never again will I use GoBack! |
