Creating a Technician's USB Stick with App Support - Macrium
In computer forensics or virus removal, installing software on the target machine can alter metadata or potentially trigger malware. Running a portable version of Macrium Reflect from a USB drive allows you to create a bit-for-bit forensic image of the drive without altering the data on the disk itself. This is the "Golden Rule" of data recovery: never work on the original drive; work on the image.
