This utility creates a restore point of a device at a known state.

This dialog box displa ys the Profile Name an d the storage destination for the profile file. • In the Profile Name field, type a nam e for a profile.

There are two types of clones to choose from: a Full Clone and a Settings Only Clone . A Full Clone contains all files, most of the registry, and the settings files. A Settings Only Clone can be copied to a wider array of devices, but it should not be used as an autorestore profile. • Tap on the Create Clone button to begin the process. Your Workabout Pro4 model type an d OS will be identified in the cloning statement to ensure that you target d evices of the same type. Give the clone profile a name and location, then tap on Next. • In this menu, select All for a Full Clone, or Selected Options for a Settings Only Clone . If you choose Selected Options , a menu will open to ena ble you to decide which options you want cloned. IMPORTANTAny profile not stored in persist ent memory (Application, Flash Disk, external USB drive) will be erased during a clean boot, therefore you should store profiles on a per- sistent drive. When performing an autorestore, th e program only searches for the profile located in the \Application\ or \Flash Dis k\TotalRecall folder. If you store your profile anywhere else it will not be restored. Only one profile can reside in th at folder. IMPORTANTThe target device for a Full Clone MUST have the same model typ e and OS build as the source, otherwise problems can occur. For example, if the t arget device has a newer build of the OS, the new bu ild may have a different set of registry keys that may conflict wit h the source.
