FolderRewind v1.5.0​

v1.5.0 redesigns incremental backup and restore logic, and adds safe restore, cloud sync extensibility, and more operational guard rails.

Important notice

This release introduces breaking changes to backup and restore logic, so upgrading from an older version cannot be guaranteed to behave exactly the same as before.

Before using it in production, run several backup-and-restore drills in a test folder, test project, or test save and make sure the result matches your expectation.

Download advice

It is recommended to download FolderRewind from Microsoft Store first.

Do not install the Store version and the offline package side by side.

Update Content​

  1. Improved how incremental backup and restore work to address many long-standing issues. See the official documentation for details.
  2. Added Safe Restore mode. If anything goes wrong during restore, FolderRewind will roll back to the initial state automatically.
  3. Added support for invoking rclone and other third-party tools to sync backups to the cloud.
  4. Added safe deletion for history records.
  5. Added detection and warnings for more high-risk situations.
  6. Added support for plugins to fully take over restore logic.
  7. Added support for forcing a full backup through remote commands.
  8. Improved settings card presentation with CommunityToolkit controls.
  9. Improved the detection logic for automatically stopping tasks.
  10. Fixed many other issues.

Upgrade Advice​

  • Run several manual backup-and-restore tests on old configs first.
  • For important data, create a full backup as your new validation baseline.
  • Review Backup Modes and First Restore before upgrading production configs.
