USB Image Tool 1.58
Version 1.58 fixes a bug in the gzip image size check and the detail info of the command line tool. Additionally you can now activate a completion message after a successful backup/restore.
Update 1: Version 1.58 seems to have an issue with the usbit32.dll. I will look into this as soon as possible.
Update 2: Looks like the first version didn’t work on Windows XP machines. This should be fixed now. The version still remains 1.58.

Great tool, but this version produces error
“cannot find usbit32.dll” even though it’s there!
Any ideas?

@John Symons: Should be fixed now.

I am getting errorcode 1110 (media changed) when making a backup of a 4GB stick, tried all available options to no avail, sometimes it halts @ 300MB then @ 1GB
Running W7 64-bit

@MT: Never heard of this error before. are you using it on a USB hub? Do you hear the USB detection sound during the backup? Does this also happen with a different flash drive or on a different machine? The error indicates, that somehow Windows thinks, the device has changed during the backup process, but that can’t be the case.

Perfect tool. You solved my prlm specially when I find your web page and could get my hands on your updated version for XP (can’t find xx.dll)
Thanks very much!
PS if you have time for a queston how big USB stick will your program manage? I have so far only tested with 4 Gb and no prlm at all.

@Moje: All size variables are 64bit, with the maximum size being theoretically 16ExaByte. Kilo – Mega – Giga – Tera – Peta – Exa. Should be enough for the next 2 or 3 decades.

great tool ! I can only backup and restore to the same usb stick though, is there anyway around this ? I had two 4gb usb sticks (different brands) and I couldnt backup and restore to different sticks, only the same.

Alexander thanks for this great utility!
I want to ask you if this program can grab also the boot sector from the usb stick because i have several bootable usb sticks which i would like to backup without loosing the boot option.
Thank you

@yannis: Yes, please make sure you use the device mode for that.

@Mark: Please take a look at the forum or FAQ, it’s already mentioned there. Thanks.

Great tool.
Only problem I have is I usually receive the following error when trying to restore an image file…”Could not access the USB device (Code 32)!The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.”
Tried it on two PC’s and even rebooted for clean start to verify the app is not running twice. I’ve only been able to restore two times and I’m not even sure how I got around the error to do the restores other than just luck.

I think I found the fix. My specific problem is not mentioned on your faq page, but after reading about running the app as adminstrator for the grayed out device mode, I ran the app as administrator (Windows 7) and then was able to restore the image. It now has worked without issue on two restores.

It works brilliantly! Thank you much, Alex

@Joe: This should only happen, when a process is accessing files on the flash drive. Usually the reason is an open explorer window. It also might be a virus scanner, that gets active, once the device is inserted.

1.58 does not recognize my flash drive; it’s a 51G USB 3.0 Express RC8. Any ideas?
December 14th, 2011 at 9:21 pm
How do I find the device ID on my USB drive?
December 22nd, 2011 at 4:02 pm
Where i can download it?

hi,
can I use this tool for make a backup of a 2GB stick in a 4 GB stick?
thank you.

@luis: Probably it’s not a flash drive, but a SSD hard drive.
January 6th, 2012 at 6:13 pm
@Andreas: It is shown on the info tab in USB Image Tool. It’s automatically generated by Windows.
January 6th, 2012 at 6:14 pm
@fab: Yes, please look for FAQ and forums how to do so.
