Restoring a disk from backup
How to restore a disk image from backup using Xopero Sphere Recovery Drive.
Xopero Sphere Recovery Drive enables bare-metal restoration of entire disks from previously created backups, allowing systems to be recovered to a fully operational state after hardware failure, data corruption, or system loss.
Recovery process
The following steps demonstrate how to restore a disk from a backup copy using the Xopero ONE Standalone Agent.
Start the computer using the Xopero Sphere Recovery Drive (you may need to change the boot order in the BIOS/UEFI settings to select the USB device as the primary boot option). After the computer starts up, press any key when the following message appears:
Once the Xopero Sphere Recovery Drive startup window loads, select Xopero and then choose Xopero ONE Standalone Agent.
In the Xopero ONE Standalone Agent backup wizard, select Restore disk and click Next.
Select the backup storage directory and click Next.
Select the specific backup copy to restore, then click Next.
Select the disk you want to restore from the backup copy.
The wizard will display the available disks on the connected computer. Select the target disk for the restoration.
Any existing data on the selected disk will be overwritten.
In Restore settings, you can choose to reset system drivers.
The drivers reset option should be selected only when restoring a backup to a device with a different hardware configuration.
Review your configuration and click Run restore to start the recovery process.
Once the restore is complete, a confirmation message will appear.
