Introduction

Many computer users nowadays are completely unaware that certain software utilities exist which are able to reverse and completely undo most kinds of software damage with just a simple reboot. Seasoned users may have heard of such programs, but are often under the impression that such software belong strictly within the domain of expert users and system administrators.

This couldn't be further from the truth. Most of those applications are extremely easy to use, for as long as users can understand and appreciate their basic principles, functions and possible limitations.

In this article we will be exploring the basic principles behind these software technologies. This will be followed by several individual articles in which we will be analysing the best solutions within this software field, with special focus on their features, functionality and limitations.

The aim here is to provide our readers with all the necessary information so that they can make an informed decision when choosing between such solutions, which we will begin to check out in future article.
