LRGEX Restore

Core Features

Every feature solves a real problem

One-click restore after Windows reinstall

Problem: You formatted your PC. Everything is gone. Solution: Open the app, click Restore All. Every backed-up folder returns to its correct location automatically.

Smart path healing

Problem: Your username changed from Bob to Robert. Every path is broken. Solution: The app detects old usernames in paths and replaces them with your current one. No manual fixing.

Portable configuration

Problem: Moving to a new PC means setting up everything again. Solution: Config uses environment variables (%USERPROFILE%, %LOCALAPPDATA%) and Windows Known Folder API. Works on any machine, any username.

Snapshot versioning

Problem: Today's file is corrupted. You need yesterday's version. Solution: Every change creates a snapshot. Restore any previous version from the version history.

Right-click integration

Problem: Adding folders to backup is tedious. Solution: Enable right-click sync (Tools menu, one click). Then right-click any folder in Explorer → "Add to LRGEX Restore". Done.

Locked file handling

Problem: Some files are in use and can't be copied. Solution: Locked files are skipped and reported. The backup never crashes. You see exactly what was skipped.

Cloud-agnostic

Problem: You don't want to be locked into a specific cloud service. Solution: Works with any synced folder — OneDrive, Google Drive, Mega, Dropbox. The app doesn't care. It just writes to a folder.

Scheduled sync

Problem: You forget to run backups. Solution: Set an interval (Tools menu). Backups run automatically. Change detection means it only re-compresses when something actually changed.

Single portable exe

Problem: Installers, dependencies, runtime errors. Solution: One exe file. No installer. No dependencies (static CRT). No DLL errors on fresh Windows. Works on VMs without GPU (software renderer).
