Ashampoo Backup Pro 26 is a Windows backup and recovery program that usually sells for $60, but for a limited time it’s entirely free for BetaNews readers. The offer runs from April 1 through April 30, giving users access to the full version without paying a penny.
The software protects files and entire systems by creating backups that can be restored after malware infections, hardware failures, or corrupted operating systems. You can choose to back up individual files, selected folders, or full disk partitions depending on what data you want to protect.

Real-time backup support tracks selected folders and updates stored copies whenever changes occur. That setup keeps backups current without relying on manual updates or scheduled tasks that could easily be forgotten.
Automatic plug-and-play backup is included, allowing predefined backup plans to begin as and when external drives are connected. Once configured, this process runs without needing input from you.
Ashampoo Backup Pro 26 rescue
A built-in rescue system allows systems to be restored when Windows fails to start. Recovery can be handled via bootable media such as a USB drive or DVD (if you have an optical drive), allowing previous backups to be restored without needing to reinstall the OS from scratch.
Support for BitLocker-encrypted drives allows protected volumes to be accessed and backed up without additional tools. The rescue environment can also unlock those drives during system recovery.
Cloud backup compatibility is included alongside local storage options, allowing backups to be stored on popular services like Dropbox, OneDrive, or Google Drive. External drives, USB storage, and network locations are also supported if you prefer local backups.
It runs in the background, limiting interruptions, and the software adjust its activity based on system resources. The program also includes disk health monitoring tools — checking drive status information will help detect possible hardware problems before data loss occurs.
