[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 495107, member: 7463"] A snapshot program is virtualization. Once you install it and make your first snapshot all subsequent things that you do on your computer will be made in a virtual environment and not on the actual system. When you want to revert to a previous stare all the Snapshot application will do is delete the snapshot- this is unlike an Imaging program where stuff has to be replaced on the drive. The upside to a Snapshot (vs Imaging software) is that they are small (only changes are saved) and can be reverted quickly (just a deletion of the changes need to be done). The downside is that if your drive fails you are screwed. [/QUOTE]
