To restore a computer which is not online in Site Manager or requires options not available in the Site Manager restore, see the Restoring an Image Through Macrium Reflect.
Site Manager will copy user-supplied drivers from the server to the target agent immediately before the restore so that the recovery environment supports agent hardware. Drivers to be copied should be placed in the Rescue Media Working Directory generic drivers folder appropriate for the operating system of the target agent. Use the table below to determine the right path:
| Operating System of Target Agent | CPU Size | Subfolder Name |
|---|---|---|
| Windows Vista or later | 64-bit | PE10x64 |
| Windows Vista or later | 32-bit | PE10x86 |
| Windows XP or Windows 7 | 64-bit | PE3x64 |
| Windows XP or Windows 7 | 32-bit | PE3x86 |
For example, drivers to be used during restores of 64-bit Windows 10 machines should be placed in workingDirectory\drivers\PE10x64\ where workingDirectory is the Rescue Media Working Directory as specified in the Rescue Media settings. These folders will need to be created manually.
