add-on that works with Image for DOS, Image for Linux, and Image for Windows.\u00a0 ImageAll enables the Image programs to backup (and restore) entire drives.\u00a0 This article will explain how to use ImageAll with Image for Windows.<\/p>\r\n<blockquote dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-right: 0px;\">\r\n<p>1. \u00a0Download <a href=\"http:\/\/www.terabyteunlimited.com\/downloads\/imageall.zip\">ImageAll<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n<p>2.\u00a0 Extract IMAGEALL.ZIP to your <strong>Image for Windows<\/strong> folder.\u00a0 (For the purpose of illustration in this article,\u00a0we'll assume an installation folder of\u00a0\"C:&#92;Program Files&#92;Image for Windows\".)<\/p>\r\n<p>3.\u00a0 Open a command prompt window as follows:<\/p>\r\n<blockquote dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-right: 0px;\">\r\n<p>I.\u00a0 Click <strong>Start<\/strong>.<br \/>\r\nII.\u00a0 Click <strong>Run<\/strong>.<br \/>\r\nIII.\u00a0 In the text box labeled <strong>Open<\/strong>, type the word\u00a0<strong>command<\/strong> (if using Windows 95\/98\/Me) or <strong>cmd<\/strong> (if using Windows 2000\/XP\/2003).<br \/>\r\nIV.\u00a0 Press <strong>Enter<\/strong> or click <strong>OK<\/strong>.\u00a0 A command prompt window will open.<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n<p>4.\u00a0 In the command prompt window, change to the <strong>Image for Windows<\/strong> directory by submitting the following command:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>cd \"C:&#92;Program Files&#92;Image for Windows\"<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Tip:<\/strong> You can also use the free <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.terabyteunlimited.com\/downloads\/DOSDROP.ZIP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Drop to DOS<\/a><\/strong> program provided by TeraByte Unlimited, as an easy way to open a command prompt within a specified folder.<\/p>\r\n<p>5.\u00a0 In the command prompt window, create a backup using BACKALL.BAT, with the following rules in mind:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>The first required parameter is the number of the hard drive to be backed up, as seen within Windows.\u00a0 To determine the hard drive number, run Image for Windows normally, select a Backup operation, and click Next one time.\u00a0 This will bring you to a window where all of the hard drives and partitions visible within Windows are listed.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>The second required parameter is the path and file name to be used to store the backup.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>The file name supplied must be no more than <strong>6 characters<\/strong> in length.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>The file name extension must be <strong>omitted<\/strong>.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>The MS-DOS 8.3 file naming convention must be used for the path.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>Here are some example command lines:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>backall 0 d:&#92;hd0-<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>The command above\u00a0will create an image named <strong>hd0-00.img<\/strong> in the root folder of D: for the first partition on hard drive 0, followed by an image named <strong>hd0-01.img<\/strong> for the second partition on hard drive 0, and so on.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>backall 1 e:&#92;mainba~1&#92;backup<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>The command above\u00a0will create an image named <strong>backup00.img<\/strong> in the folder \"E:&#92;Main Backups\"\u00a0for the first partition on hard drive 1, followed by an image named <strong>backup01.img<\/strong> for the second partition on hard drive 1, and so on.\u00a0 Note that the MS-DOS 8.3 file naming convention was used in the command line.<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ImageAll is a free add-on that works with Image for DOS, Image for Linux, and Image for Windows.\u00a0 ImageAll enables the
