  WinToUSB Installation Won't Boot After Accidental BCD Deletion
Posted by: vrafroclou - 45 minutes ago - Forum: WinToUSB (Best Windows To Go Creator) - No Replies

Hi everyone,
I've been running Windows through WinToUSB for about a year without any issues, but today I ran into a boot problem that I can't seem to resolve.
After the manufacturer's splash screen appears, I immediately get an error message stating that the Boot Configuration Data (BCD) file contains invalid information. From what I can tell, the issue is my own fault—I accidentally removed the BCD entry while using EasyBCD.
Since then, I've tried repairing the boot configuration from the Windows Recovery Command Prompt. However, when I run

Code:
bootrec /rebuildbcd
, it returns an error indicating that the specified path cannot be found. I've also attempted a few other standard boot repair steps, but so far nothing has worked.
Has anyone dealt with a similar situation on a WinToUSB installation? Is there a recommended way to manually recreate the BCD store or repair the boot files when
Code:
bootrec
can't locate the Windows installation?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

  Smart backup enhancement
Posted by: pt58 - Today, 12:40 AM - Forum: Hasleo Backup Suite (Free Windows Backup & Restore Software) - Replies (4)

I was wondering if it would be possible to enhance the Smart backup option to show a warning when a disk layout change has occurred.
If you attempt a differential backup when the disk layout has changed, then HBS necessarily performs a new Full backup rather than the expected differential.
It would be good if this was flagged up and the backup was labelled as a full backup rather than a differential.
The disk layout change seems to occur every 2 or 3 months when Microsoft enlarges the recovery partition as part of Patch Tuesday updates.
This usually entails shrinking the C:\ partition by a corresponding amount.
It has happened again following this months Windows update.
At least the smart backup option allows the backup to proceed following the layout change, whereas previously the backup would just fail.

  Sort list of backups on Home tab
Posted by: Tungsten - 07-14-2026, 08:39 PM - Forum: Hasleo Backup Suite (Free Windows Backup & Restore Software) - Replies (7)

Hi,

Just wondering if there is a way to sort the list of backups on the home tab.

As a new user I've been creating an assortment of different backups but would now like to have my most frequently used ones at the top of the list.

If I delete the backups on the home tab then re-import them, would that work?

TIA

  OneDrive folder exclusion problem
Posted by: marrajon - 07-13-2026, 06:25 PM - Forum: Hasleo Backup Suite (Free Windows Backup & Restore Software) - Replies (11)

Hello.

I've just discovered this piece of software, and I`ve liked it, but I've found a problem:
I'm trying to backup a windows 10 partition, but when I try to exclude Onedrive folders, using filters, OneDrive folders are always included when I mount the resulting image. Also the size is greater than expected because it is copying all downloaded Onedrive files.
I`ve tried with folder option and folder + file , with *.* in file, obtaining same results.

I think it does not matter, but I'm using OneDrive Professional.

The Hasleo Backup Suite has been v5.8.2.2 Home Version  (trial period), but I think that if I solve this problem I will buy the license.

Thanks a lot in advance.

  Restore from NAS
Posted by: Tungsten - 07-10-2026, 04:47 PM - Forum: Hasleo Backup Suite (Free Windows Backup & Restore Software) - Replies (7)

Hi, I am a new user to Hasleo having come from using Macrium Reflect.

I can make a system backup to my Synology NAS by mapping network drive from Windows 11 but not having any success accessing the NAS from the boot menu to be able to restore. I'm told that the network path is unavailable.

The boot menu uses winPE which I believe does not include wifi drivers. There's an option to include .inf driver's but my INF folder in windows 11 has dozens of files which means nothing to me. 

My question is can I and how do I add wifi drivers so I can access my NAS.

TIA

Question Tech Discussion: Inability to Modify Secure Boot and Boot Order After System Restore
Posted by: admin - 07-10-2026, 04:16 PM - Forum: Hasleo Backup Suite (Free Windows Backup & Restore Software) - Replies (11)

Hello everyone,

Today we encountered a case and would like to share it for discussion.

A user reported that after restoring a system partition using Hasleo Backup Suite, Windows failed to boot normally. When attempting to recover from a USB drive, the user found that Secure Boot could not be disabled in the BIOS, and the boot order reset to default after every reboot. The user insisted that the software had corrupted the ESP partition during the restore process, causing these issues.

Our technical analysis is as follows:

  1. Secure Boot and the boot order are UEFI firmware settings stored in the motherboard's NVRAM, not on the hard disk.
  2. During restoration, Hasleo Backup Suite only modifies data on the disk's ESP (EFI System Partition), Windows partition, and recovery partition; it does not change any firmware settings.
  3. The ESP only stores boot loader files. Modifying or corrupting the ESP only affects the system boot process, it does not affect the ability to modify BIOS settings.

Based on the above, we believe this issue is more likely caused by a firmware bug or hardware failure rather than by the software operation.

We would like to ask: Have any of you encountered similar situations where BIOS settings appear "locked" in your maintenance work? We welcome your insights and experience.

Best regards,

  Dokan and WinFSP co-exist?
Posted by: zx81 - 07-09-2026, 08:54 PM - Forum: Hasleo Backup Suite (Free Windows Backup & Restore Software) - Replies (4)

I use Cryptomator which uses WinFSP driver to mount a virtual drive in Windows 11.
Will Dokan driver used by HBS to mount virtual drive co-exist with WinFSP on same PC without issues?
