Redo Rescue is free, open-source backup and recovery software for Linux, Windows, and macOS. It makes image backups and supports bare-metal recovery, including restoring a system to a blank new drive. Users can also preserve a target drive's layout and restore data to different parts of it. The live environment is based on 64-bit Debian and comes as an ISO to write to CD or USB and boot from. Version 3.0 works with real and virtual machines, supports UEFI Secure Boot, and can restore backups created with version 1.0. Password-protected remote access and a VNC server allow another person to assist with recovery. Detailed logs and error reporting are available, and the maker describes the interface as point-and-click. The release is under GNU GPLv3; the maker says its code can be audited, modified, and copied at no cost. Redo Rescue supports computer and server backup, but not mobile backup. The maker provides instructions for creating boot media on Windows, Mac, and Linux. The plan costs nothing.
