  Yes, but at the time of formatting the drive, EAZ-FIX needs to be installed and enabled.
 
12. How is EAZ-FIX different from backup software?
  EAZ-FIX does not backup files, therefore it does not require a lot of space or extra devices to run. In addition, EAZ-FIX can recover files and system in seconds. EAZ-FIX can also recover the system when Windows OS fails. Backup software cannot do these.

  No, EAZ-FIX is a software product. It can't fix problems caused by hardware failure.

  No, EAZ-FIX is not designed to be the replacement of backup software. EAZ-FIX allows you to undo PC problems in seconds, which backup software cannot offer. But if you have data that you GOT to have, backup in multiple places is still a MUST.

17. What is the difference between EAZ-FIX and XP System Restore?
