To create the recovery image, first install the DaRT 7 tools (these include the recovery image maker, online crash analyzer, and remote connection viewer). This makes DaRT available to any machine capable of PXE booting. Most organizations, except those with a measurable percentage of non-networked machines, will probably choose to distribute their DaRT recovery image as a Windows Deployment Server boot image. Not as quick as USB or embedded on boot up. No physical media, updates very easy to distribute Image may not be available if hard drive fails, difficult to distribute updates. No need to carry around media, very quick to boot Nearly all machines capable of booting off media, most familiar technologyīoot image becomes outdated quickly requiring new media to be produced and distributedīoot images not updated become obsolete, easier to lose The table below outlines major benefits to each: Distribution Method The most common are CD/DVD, USB, embedded during initial workstation imaging, and network bootable. There are a variety of ways to deploy DaRT for client use. Further, tools such as the crash analyzer and hotfix uninstaller help to increase the stability of images by sorting out bugs rather than simply reimaging. While most Windows administrators would simply image a machine if it became unbootable, the specific tools in DaRT are nearly always faster and more specific in their troubleshooting.

And finally, though technically not a tool for system recovery, the Remote Connection interface allows Windows Administrators to remotely connect to a machine in a Windows PE environment.
