Ashampoo Backup Pro 17



Back up and restore files with ease

Ashampoo Backup Pro 17 safely creates backups from any file type, even entire operating systems. The program works fully automatically in the background to prevent data loss. Backups are a reliable way to remedy system failure.

Ashampoo Backup Pro 17 is Windows-based a comprehensive backup solution to back up or restore any file, partition or bootable operating system. Archives can easily be restored in the event of hardware issues or system malware infections. Backups can be created fully automatically thanks to smart background technology that does not interfere with normal PC operation. For that, Ashampoo Backup Pro 17 monitors the system load and only becomes active when enough resources are available. Four selectable compression methods and strong encryption ensure space-efficient and secure backup archives. Users have total control over the storage location and medium, from traditional hard disks to online cloud services for maximum accessibility–and this applies to both individual files and entire disk partitions. Restoring archives can either be achieved through the program itself or Windows Explorer. And if worst comes to worst and your system suffers from total failure, the program's rescue system will still allow you to boot your machine and restore your backup without data loss. It can either be run from a portable flash drive/hard disk or an optical medium, like a DVD. During backups, Ashampoo Backup Pro 17 constantly verifies each operation to avoid data inconsistency. This even includes health monitoring for your disk drives, with instant notifications should a drive be on the brink of failure. In the new version 17, real-time backup detects changes to monitored folders and backs them up as soon as they are registered. Even hard drives locked by Bitlocker can be unlocked and used as storage locations, for example. The rescue system is now based on the current Windows version, making it easier to install and use. Connectivity with the most important cloud providers has been greatly improved in version 17 thanks to a number of adjustments.

Backup, rescue, and restore files with ease!



Ashampoo Backup Pro 17 takes the fear out of viruses, ransomware and hardware errors! Experience an easy to use well-designed but powerful backup solution. The new Ashampoo Backup Pro 17 offers you all possible storage options: Back up single files to entire partitions to local drives or online storage providers. In addition, the program is light on resources, gets out of your way and does all the heavy lifting in the background. Restoring your backups is super easy! Ashampoo Backup Pro 17 even comes with a bootable rescue system to restore your system in the event of major system failure!

Helps with:
Malware infections
Hard disk failure
Accidentally deleted files
Operating system issues
Troublesome updates
Device theft

Real-time backups

Nothing gets past unnoticed



Our new real-time backup technology tracks your most important folders for file changes and updates your backups accordingly–and you get to individually pick those folders! This means your files are kept safe automatically and it certainly takes the fear out of sudden crashes or system freeze-ups. Never again will you have to worry whether your current archives really include all of your latest files. It's another step toward the perfect backup solution!

State-of-the-art rescue system

Rescue system based on the latest Windows

Ashampoo Backup Pro's got your back when disaster strikes and your system crashes: Our Windows-based state-of-the-art rescue system can reboot your PC either from DVD or USB stick. Instead of a full Windows reinstall, you can then simply restore your previous system backup and return your PC to normal. Save time and effort and keep your PC, and your files, safe with Ashampoo Backup Pro 17!

Bitlocker support

Unlock and use BitLocker-encrypted drives

Windows encrypts drives via BitLocker to protect them against unauthorized access. This makes it harder, sometimes even impossible, for backup software to access your files. Ashampoo Backup Pro 17 not only sees your BitLocker-encrypted drives but can also access them to store your file archives. Naturally, the drives are not only accessible during normal operation but also through the rescue system!

We're ready for Windows 11–and so are you!

Fully operational at release

Windows 11 poses new challenges for existing software–not so for Ashampoo® Backup Pro! Our team is working hard to ensure full Windows 11 compatibility right off the bat–and in the long run, so you won't have to worry about data security ever again!

Off to a great start with Ashampoo® Backup Pro

1-Click access to all vital sections!

Our backup solution works for everyone, from beginner to data security specialist. That's why we've made our backup plans as flexible and versatile as possible! The new presets save your data in just a few clicks. Would you like to back up your documents only or your entire system? Do you want to save your emails, contacts or browser data? Or do you prefer a more refined approach with custom plans specifically tailored to your needs? Even highly sophisticated backup plans only take a few clicks. Simple or sophisticated, creating backup plans is a breeze with the new Ashampoo® Backup Pro!



Your backup plans in full view

Your backups neatly and tidily listed with custom views

Ashampoo® Backup Pro features an even better backup overview that has all the information you need neatly arranged. Find out instantly about recent or upcoming backups and access in-depth details or restore, verify, view, and delete individual archives in a single click. Experience maximum clarity and get the backup management you've always wanted!

Backup Plan Templates:



Future-proof cloud support

Instant access to all popular providers and storage methods



Cloud storage has long been a secure way of backing up your data. As cloud providers keep advancing their services and storage methods, so do we: Ashampoo® Backup Pro has been fully updated to support the latest and most secure online data transfer methods! Back up your data to Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, OneDrive Business / Office 365, Owncloud, Telekom MagentaCLOUD, Strato, 1&1 and many others with absolute confidence and avoid speed throttling automatically!

Take a closer look at individual backups

Keep track of your backup plans and view important details



The new details view provides essential information about your backups, like previous and next run as well as save location. Information about file origins and backup type is also included. Even keeping track of multiple backups running in parallel is no longer an issue. And you can also create detailed reports to find out exactly what is going on with each of your plans. Naturally, you'll be instantly notified should things go wrong, e.g. because your external hard disk is full!

Your lifesaver when all else fails

Rescue system to recover corrupted operating systems



Once your PC becomes infected, e.g. through malware, or your hard disks crash or malfunction, your operating system is done for–with reinstalling Windows plus all of your programs being the only path to go forward, unless you have a clean backup! Ashampoo® Backup Pro will save hours of time and effort. The built-in rescue system will boot your PC either from DVD or flash drive and help you restore your system so that your PC works normally again. It's the end of data loss!

Superior malware protection

No chance for ransomware, viruses, and worms

Your PC is under constant threat from all kinds of malware. A single wrong click, a security hole in your system, or an infected email is all it takes to trigger disaster! Antivirus programs can never detect and neutralize all malware. Experts believe 300,000 new threats are created and distributed every day. Ransomware that targets your wallet in return for access to your files is particularly prevalent. Do you really want to negotiate with online criminals? Backups are the only solution that offers 100% security. Once your system becomes infected, simply restore your backup and you're in the clear again!

Professional technology for everyone



Use the techniques of professional system administrators

The security strategies incorporated into this backup solution was designed with business use in mind and comply with the strict standards required in professional environments. Because only the highest standards are good enough to protect your files! Professional administrators appreciate the solid backup engine, constant file verification, and strong encryption, which is why Ashampoo® Backup Pro is also used by major companies. Get industry-grade file protection for your PC!

Don't be afraid of Windows updates!

Simply restore your system to its prior state when it was working fine!

Updates are essential for every PC. Unfortunately, updates can introduce security issues or malfunctions that can cause data loss. At worst, Windows updates can prevent your system from working at all or starting up. These are the painful "but everything was working fine yesterday" moments. Ashampoo® Backup Pro takes your system back to that moment when everything was working perfectly! Face future Windows or security software updates calmly in the knowledge that nothing can harm your PC anymore!

Space-efficient file storage where and how you want it

External hard drive, USB stick, NAS, or cloud: Ashampoo® Backup offers flexible storage options!

Ashampoo® Backup Pro saves your backups to any hard disk, USB stick, network drive or cloud service. The advanced disk image feature uses powerful "infinite reverse incremental" technology that takes up little space but offers maximum security. The program supports four different compression methods. And best of all: Backups created with Ashampoo® Backup Pro require up to 50% less space than other backup solutions!

All-round protection with hard disk checkups

The backup solution that even checks output locations

A backup is only as safe as the hard disk its stored on! That's why Ashampoo® Backup Pro monitors your hard disk's SMART parameters during backups to detect future issues before they happen! This allows you time to react and avoid data loss. The program also features an additional drive / partition check that analyzes and repairs individual sectors. Whether internal or external, Ashampoo® Backup Pro takes extra good care of your hard disks!



No strain on your system

Ashampoo® Backup Pro strategic benefits

Our solution is not only fast but also smart. Most backup solutions will stop your work as soon as backups are created. Once underway your PC is practically paralyzed with slow, if any, response times. With Ashampoo® Backup Pro, this is a non-issue! You won't even notice when backups are created but your archives will still always be up-to-date. Backup Pro does all the heavy lifting in the background and analyzes your system load, only becoming active when enough resources are available without getting in your way. So you can continue to work while Backup Pro works its magic.

Full clarity with Backup Viewer

View archive contents without opening them

While backups are primarily meant for storing and restoring data, sometimes you just want to peek into them. Ashampoo® Backup Pro's Backup Viewer let's you do just that. Access archived files directly without restoring them first. The files are opened in a secure space to avoid modifying or damaging the original archives!

Bottom Line:

Ashampoo® Backup Pro 17 is Windows-based a comprehensive backup solution to back up or restore any file, partition or bootable operating system. It works for everyone, from beginner to data security specialist. The program has many features and tools that make it an ultimate fix for malware infections, hard disk defects and Windows crashes. The new Ashampoo Backup Pro 17 offers you all possible storage options: Back up single files to entire partitions to local drives or online storage providers. There are many built-in useful backup plan templates

tarekma7,
Thanks for hosting the giveaway and thanks to Ashampoo for the licenses. Wow, a 2-for-1; Photo Commander and Backup Pro.

Favorite feature Photo Commander: Organize Photos
    I have over 70 Gb of photos, some of which suffer from my amateur status as a photographer.  Ashampoo Photo Commander would allow me to fix those that require it. 
    More importantly, I can organize those photos from the 4 internal and 3 external drives where they reside.
Favorite feature Backup Pro: Realtime Backups
    Earlier versions of Ashampoo Backup Pro (v12-v16, some paid) have saved me from multiple drive failures and one ransomware attack. 
    I would love to bring my version up to the most current.

Both programs have the Ashampoo quality I have come to expect over almost two decades of use. I would like to continue for another.
