I generally post specific links to information about the program.
My link didn't change from one product to another, which can be confusing.

[kelown]

Sounds promising. Would be useful for an experienced user to compare it
to Macrium Reflect Free. Is it capable of booting its WinPE directly
from a PC bootable partition?

[AllanH]

It looks like the only options are to create an emergency USB drive or to
export the ISO file.

Is this the one with headquarters in Iran? I know the website says that
it's located in the U.S., but I can't remember for sure. Can anybody
help me out here?

TIA.

time-limited, trial or web wares for me please.

So that I don't see them, I filter out:
-crossposts (sent to multiple newsgroups) at a time
-posts sent via Google Groups* due to spam from that source
-trolls (eg. "Bucky Breeder" and his many sock puppets)

If you do the same, the group will be easier for you to read.

Still thinks robocopy is more than enough for simple incremental
backup... :)

Thanks for the prompt feedback. So, for example, I'd save my C: drive as
an ISO file on an external drive, then restore the ISO with WinPE from
the Hasleo bootable USB?

[AllanH]

I don't believe you would need the ISO file after creating the emergency
USB drive.
When I used AOMEI Backupper Standard, I did create the ISO file of the
Win10 build from December.
That was in case I do a Repair Upgrade, I can use the "Mount" option from
my hard drive to install it.

Then that program meets your needs. Other peoples' needs may be
different than yours though. For instance, I need a program which works
in Windows 7 and which will incrementally clone a drive or partition on
the system drive to another partition either on that drive or on another
drive.

Robocopy won't do that. Hasleo's Backup Suite Free's home page says:

• Backup & Restore, clone Windows OS, disks, partitions and

files(folders).Improved

• Supported backup modes: full, incremental and differential.
• Supports compression, encryption, splitting and merging of backup
image files.

• Delta restore improves restore speed by restoring only changed blocks.

• Automatically and regularly perform backup task with backup

schedule.Improved

• Image retention policy and centralized backup task management.

• Supported OS: Windows Vista/Server 2008 or later, fully compatible
with GPT and UEFI.

On on June 4, 2021, I asked Martin Brinkman in the comments section here:

https://www.ghacks.net/2021/06/04/first-look-at-hasleo-backup-suite-free-a-new-windows-backup-software/

where Hasleo was located, and he replied that it was China. Now they
claim to be located in the United States, so I'm guessing that they
simply relocated here possibly to get around objections to the program's
country of origin.

China, like the U.S., has a history of spying on people. Perhaps my
objections to using software from China are moot in any case.

Think about this: Unless you're a programmer extraordinaire and can hack
everything there is, you really don't know what's going on in the
background on any computer.
