Hasleo Backup Suite V5.9.2.2 Released!

[Zombo]

@Zombo, yes, the file D519D51B249349f38D79D76488950CB5.EXC in the EFI system partition is created by Hasleo Backup Suite. It is used to exchange partition information and other related data between Windows and WinPE.

It seems a majority of the files content is in chinese or chinese hex and some is in english.

I would be more comfortable if it was all in english so I can review the contents.

Thank you for your interest in, or perhaps concern about, this file.

The file D519D51B249349f38D79D76488950CB5.EXC you mentioned is located in the EFI system partition and is automatically created by Hasleo Backup Suite. It is a binary data file that serves as a temporary carrier for exchanging partition information and related data between Windows and the WinPE environment.

It should be noted that this file stores binary data that is readable by programs, not human‑readable text. The so‑called "Chinese" or "Chinese hexadecimal" content that appears when the file is opened is merely an illusion caused by forcefully decoding the binary data with a text viewer; the file itself does not store Chinese information in textual form. Therefore, viewing this file directly as text will not yield any meaningful readable content, this is determined by its intended purpose and data structure.

If you have further questions, please feel free to ask, and we will do our best to answer them.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

Yes it looks different when I use my hex and binary editors.

I know in the file that DMIO:ID is referring to the partition GUID.

Still have some parts of it to decipher.

The format of this file is actually very simple. It stores the mapping between the unique identifiers of all partitions (such as the DMIO:ID you mentioned) and their corresponding drive letters, so that programs running in WinPE can correctly assign drive letters to those partitions. There's really no need to waste time parsing it, unless that's your hobby!

@admin,

Smooth installation.  The improvements just keep coming!  No competitor in the backup market that I know of is issuing new versions as quickly as Hasleo.  My congratulations to the Hasleo Development Team. 👍

I would prefer it if the updates also included the version number in their download name.  I don't know what others think ... ?  Just a suggestion.

Have a great day.

Regards,
Phil

Update installed - no issues as usual! Nice! 👍

I actually like that the update URL stays the same for every update.

But I would have no problem with a server redirect, something like:
Hasleo_Backup_Suite_Free.exe -> Hasleo_Backup_Suite_Free_v5.9.2.2_260901.exe

Cheers,

@garioch7 and @al3x,

Thank you very much for your kind words and valuable suggestions.

Regarding the download file naming, we have carefully considered your suggestions. While we acknowledge the convenience this could bring, we have decided not to change our current practice at this time.

The main reason is that we have been using the fixed‑name download link for a long time, and many existing users as well as older versions of our software rely on this fixed URL to automatically fetch updates. Changing it now, even with a redirect, could potentially disrupt these automated workflows and prevent older versions from successfully downloading updates.

Nevertheless, we will keep your suggestion in mind for future major version releases, where we may have an opportunity to redesign the update mechanism more comprehensively.

Thank you again for your valuable input.

Have a nice day!

Best regards,

Hello

I've been having trouble downloading the PE data for a few versions now.

Of course, I have an internet connection.

   


So I always use the offline package. 
Does anyone have any idea why this isn't working?
