USB Image Tool 1.50 features all the changes already introduced with the beta version and adds some more features, of which two were requested by users. You can find all changes in the changelog and the download at the usual page. Thanks again to everybody who tested the beta version and especially to the people […]
With version 1.50 I made the usbit32.dll multi-threaded, making it is possible to backup or restore multiple flash drives at the same time. Because I rewrote some major parts of the GUI app and the usbit32.dll, I decided to release a beta version first. If you can test the new version, your help would be […]
Version 1.42 can create MD5 checksums of image files during the backup process. This feature can be activated on the “Options” tab. Next version will probably be 1.50.

For compatibility reasons I will also implement an extraction for the old zip based imz files (minizip). It’s also included in the zlib package and contributed by […]
Version 1.31 includes bugfixes for the user interface and compression routines. The zip compression routines, used by USB Image Tool (XZip based on Info-ZIP/zlib 1.1.3), may lead to corrupted images. When creating a compressed backup, USB Image Tool now checks the compressed image to ensure it is not corrupted. I’m assuming it has to be […]
