How can I retrieve a file I accidentally deleted?
To retrieve a file from your Rebit, double-click the Rebit icon on your Windows® XP or 7 or Vista™ desktop or within the "My Computer" folder. This will open a "My Rebit" Windows Explorer window. Find the file or folder you're looking for and simply drag-and-drop it to where you want it on your PC. You can also open the file or save it to a folder of your choosing.

What if I have a PC hard disk crash?
Replace the destroyed disk drive with a new disk drive. Once the new disk drive is installed into your PC, connect the Rebit and insert the Rebit Recovery CD into your CD disk drive. Turn your PC on, and select from the displayed screen the point in time to which you want to restore, and Rebit will restore your entire PC disk to exactly like it was at that time.
To recover your entire PC backup for any reason that does not require a new hard disk drive, such as a corrupt file system table, follow the same simple steps but without replacing the PC hard disk.
Rebit comes with the PC Recovery CD, and a recovery takes only a few hours rather than the few days it could take to do it yourself or to send it out to be worked on.

Does Rebit protect my PC from viruses?
Rebit is a key part of good antivirus protection. A reputable antivirus software package will scan your PC files for any viruses. Should you lose data due to a virus, Rebit allows you to recover files prior to the virus, and, if necessary, recover your entire PC to an earlier point in time.

What, exactly, will Rebit back up on my PC?
Rebit will backup everything on your PC. Rebit will continuously backup multiple internal-PC disks and disk partitions which are formatted NTFS. This, of course, includes the entire system partition (typically the "C:" partition), and all other data partitions and disks. (Rebit backs up other, non-NTFS formatted partitions and "hidden" partitions on the system disk, such as recovery partitions, only once, the first time it is plugged into the computer). To determine the partition formatting, open My Computer, right-click the drive icon, and select "Properties"; look for "File system".

If my computer is destroyed can I restore to a new computer?
You can recover your entire PC backup from Rebit onto a replacement PC of the exact same make and model in the case of catastrophes like a destroyed PC or a lost or stolen notebook. It is important to note that all of the operating system files that are backed up on your Rebit are those used by your previous PC. If the replacement PC is not the exact same make and model as your lost PC, the recovered system files may not allow the new PC to run properly. However, you can recover any files and folders from your Rebit to a different PC.

Can I use Rebit to move files from one computer to another?
Yes, you can recover backed up files from one computer to another computer. Rebit is designed for continuous, transparent backup and easy recovery of files or an entire PC. Rebit also provides for portability of backed up data to another PC, should you want to recover backed up files to a different PC.
