Try And Decide.......
Hi people, i recently installed Acronis back up software and i noticed that there is a "try and decide button" i just clicked it and apparently what ever i do for the duration of the session, I can delete it afterward, Sweet deal i say but can someone clarify this for me PLEASE.

Could this be my answer / Alternative to not having a sandbox in Vista 64 bit??

I personaly use Try & Decide with my Acronis. It basically does something quite similar to a sandbox or software called Returnil. It's a virtual environment where you can basically do whatever you want. If you decide not to keep the changes, just say so and nothing will be saved. When finished with your trial, simply get back to the real Windows.

Maybe THIS will shed some light. Try & Decide doesn't have holes poked into and you can still save what you've tried. Nothing is lost.

If it were me .. I'd also make a backup "Image" of my system ...
Just in case something goes wrong.
