Choose a file name and location: If selected, a file 'save As' dialog will be shown when the 'OK' button on this dialog is clicked. This enables saving the restore definition file to any file name and to any folder.

Info
Note: For auto restore to operate the restore definition must be named 'macrium_restore.xml' and be located on a root folder on a local drive. Saving to a different name and/or location enables you to prepare several restore definitions for later use.


Set the restore xml file as 'Read Only':
At the end of an auto restore the restore definition is automatically deleted. Setting the definition as 'Read Only' prevents deletion and enables re-running of the same restore each time Windows PE starts.
