If your computer cannot start up normally and you need to be able to perform startup repair tasks or recover data which is now inaccessible, you'll probably try using the built-in tools provided by Windows to remedy the problem. Unfortunately, however, these tools are rarely powerful enough to get the job done. Whether you need to recover data which is now inaccessible, diagnose and repair startup problems, securely and permanently erase sensitive or confidential data or backup your data thoroughly, Active@ Boot Disk provides the full range of tools that you need to carry out any of these tasks. Active@ Boot Disk provides a completely self-contained boot environment so that you can use all of these tools and more completely independently of Windows or DOS.

Active@ Boot Disk is ideal in cases in which, no matter what you try, you simply cannot start up Windows. On another, working computer, you can install Active@ Boot Disk onto either optical media or a USB flash drive and then use this to boot up on the dysfunctional computer. You might need to change your BIOS boot priorities first, however. Active@ Boot Disk will start up, allowing you to use all of its tools regardless of the status of your Windows installation. This makes it ideal for dealing with startup repair processes or carrying out complex data recovery or erasure processes which cannot be carried out while you're actually logged into Windows. Active@ Boot Disk also supports dual-boot and multiple-boot setups for DOS and Windows.

Active@ Boot Disk provides support for any kind of file system ever used by any machine running DOS or Windows. Even extremely old and long-obsolete file systems such as FAT12 and FAT16 are supported. Flash memory drives are supported too. Active@ Boot Disk can recover data from compressed or encrypted disks. It's a powerful solution which provides everything that you need in a convenient package. If your hard drive partitions have failed, you can use the partition recovery or partition management features provided with this solution. You can recovery data or securely erase it so that prying eyes can never access your data regardless of how hard they try. Many other tools are provided too, such as a notepad, HEX editor, paint program, calculator, file manager, registry editor and more.
