O&O Software GMBH has unveiled a major new update of its Windows drive-imaging and backup tool with the release of O&O DiskImage Professional 10 64-bit. Also available for 32-bit versions of Windows, the new release adds support for the forthcoming Windows 10 release.

It also debuts a completely rewritten file backup engine, the ability to trigger multiple tasks with portable devices and support for integrating drivers into the program’s rescue boot medium.

O&O DiskImage 10’s headline new feature is its brand new file-based backup component. Although the tool retains the same look and feel as its predecessor, O&O claim it’s up to twice as fast as the old version.

The new build promises full compatibility with the final release of Windows 10 too; version 9, which was only released last October, introduced support for the pre-release version.

The program also introduces a new feature that makes it possible to run multiple tasks with portable devices, extending the program’s existing abilities whereby users could run backup jobs automatically when plugging in a portable backup device.

Finally, O&O DiskImage 10 now allows users to integrate third-party drivers when creating the rescue boot disc -- click the Add Drivers button to do. They can also now load drivers for one-time use when using the rescue medium too -- simply select the Drivers tab under O&O System Settings. In both cases, users need to supply the driver files via another drive or disc.

O&O DiskImage Professional 10.0 32-bit and O&O DiskImage Professional 10.0 64-bit are both available as free 30-day trial downloads for PCs running Windows Vista or later.
