Excellent test as always.
I have one questions:
"Do you think that SD run on demand (not on boot) is also safe such as set to enter on Shadow Mode on boot?"
Tnx

Wow. I guess Shadow Defender is a good value for money (lifetime license). The power of Shadow Defender have been confirmed by you even against something which will infect the MBR. 
Could you test Deep Freeze and RollBack Rx?
Could you test Deep Freeze and RollBack Rx?Very nice test. I've yet to see my Shadow Defender in action defending against malware, so this vid is a nice reinforcement of me picking it up.

@cruelsister Can you test rehips when they release version 2.2.0?
ReHIPS
ReHIPS - An HIPS/Sandbox without kernel Hooks - (quick test included)

I'd also love to see a test like this. I know hjblx has been testing it for some time and can vouch for its quality.

A perfect concept of virtualization, any program not just Shadow Defender should be continuously maintain the security proof. Of course Keyloggers and worms is already a different side of story where damages defeats any tools.

A very informative video, thanks cruelsister, virtualization tool like Shadow defender is a must have(paid or otherwise), it certainly defeats some of the worst data destruction malwares. To protect against unwanted data transmission, a strong outbound firewall and data access restriction policy can work effectively.

Another good program of genre is Acronis Try&Decide. I don't saw many people talking about this software but is awesome like Shadow Defender. I don't know if you guy's know about this software so here is some screenshots running on my pc if anyone is interested:
It's in portuguese-brazil but the first picture is asking if you want to activate the program and shows the used space on hd (green) /space used when you install something using Try&Decide (light blue with stripes) / and free space in your hd (light blue).
And the last picture shows something like: "Take a decision:" [ Apply Changes / Apply Changes doing restart of system /Discard changes doing restart of system ]
I decided to share because is a good program and I don't see many people talking about this software

Yes. As I always use Shadow Defender just on-demand, I tested Petya this way on a real machine and it works.
The unofficial Shadow Defender Support Thread.
The reasoning behind this assertion is Shadow Defender protects the shadowed volume and its MBR in its entirety and until the last moment upon reboot, so when the machine starts again loading Windows we have a complete new and fresh session.

Doesn't anybody test softs against malwares for themselves ?
Are @Umbra, @illumination, @cruelsister, myself and perhaps a few others the only ones ?

As far as i am concerned Shadow Defender is pretty much bullet proof in my experience over five years of testing.

Yep i sure do. Without a problem so far.Doesn't anybody test softs against malwares for themselves ?

No i don't feel safe testing because I am not an expert

From now on whenever I can, I'm going to run tests against X malware ON real machines only. Using a spare HDD and a spare USB stick which can be easily low level formatted at any moment.Doesn't anybody test softs against malwares for themselves ?

Very good idea but I can guess this is why it's not very popular...

Sorry for the offtopic. Great video as always cruelsister.
Guess a software like Faronics Deep Freeze would work very similar in this situation.
