Meanwhile, VirtualBox support for Reflect’s viBoot feature enables instant restoration of an image to more types of virtual machine – instead of just a Hyper-V virtual machine.

“Automatic partition resizing was one of the first features on our list when developing Reflect 8.”Īlongside existing full, differential, and incremental backups, users can now schedule more backups per day to capture fine-grained changes that Reflect previously would have missed. It can really slow you down, and it can also feel stressful,” wrote Gall. “Partition resizing can be a tricky and irritating task to perform when trying to move a backup image from one place to another. New features in Macrium Reflect 8 include automatic partition resizing, intra-daily backups, dark mode, VirtualBox support for viBoot, and ex-FAT support, he wrote.
