I recently (12/11/20) purchased Aomei Backupper Professional, downloaded it, and had it run back ups which seemed to work well until about 12/20/20 (about 9 days). Around 1a/20 or a day or two after, I got a notification that there was an update and clicked to install the update. Nothing much happened, but it did wipe out the Backupper Professional program. When I looked in the program files it was no longer there. So, I re-booted and got the Blue Screen of Death. Nothing that I could do would bring the computer back to life. I had to have a computer specialist bring the computer back to life (wiping out all programs,so incurred significant expense and had to start from scratch to reload all other programs). Now, I am hesitant to reload Backupper Professional.
Is it safe to do that?
Have others had similar experiences?
Is it best just not to take the chance and write it off as a bad experience?
I liked the program while it worked but obviously, at this point, without some assurance it won't happen again, the risks are just too great.
