Installed and registered without problems on a Win 8.1.3 Pro 64 bit system. A clean install.
The big file size due to a Linux boot disk and the WinPe.

We had a previous version AOMEI Backupper Pro 2.0 on May 16, 2014. Here are the old reviews:
http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/aomei-backupper-pro-2-0/

A good change log (as it always should be!) can be found here:
http://www.backup-utility.com/changelog.html

The offered "Pro" version has not many advantages to the free "Standard" version:
"
Command line backup
Merge backup images
Backup disk space management "

This is a well known backup tool.
A small non resizable splash window opens. Here you can register the program with a short key.
In the settings you define the compression level, the split of the backup (if you want to burn it to DVD), the "intelligent sector backup" (only backup used sectors) and the VSS.

You should create a bootable media. Either WinPE or Linux type:

(I only backup my system partition with a bootable media, never during the running system, even if this possible without problems with the volume shadow.)

After that you can backup folders, disks or partitions. The use is simple, self explaining.
A working and recommended software. Update it if you use it anyhow. I repeat the main point from my former comment - and I correct a statement:
"A difficult market, Nearly everybody has HIS backup solution, which he doesn’t want to change. In my case I use Acronis since ages(*1).

Uninstalled for the reason, that I do not need different backup tools. If you don’t have one: take this … or look for the free backup solutions from the HD manufacturer, e.g. the Acronis True Image WesternDigital(*2) Edition."

(*1)
changed in the meantime. I use the Paragon Hard Disk manager now.

(*2)
The free Acronis backup has a serious "flaw", no not a flaw, but something, which should force you to buy the real thing. It has no "used sectors" backup. If you have a 500 GB system disk and 100 GB system data, you can only backup the full 500 GB. If you want to backup your 100 GB system. Sorry this is not possible in the free version...

I've worked in IT for over twenty years, and its scary how a simple update or turning off the computer wrongly can break a Windows installation.
Its fine backing up documents and program data, but everyone (especially those using laptops which sometimes require more specific drivers than desktop PCs) should have an image of their operating system handy.
Windows creates 'restore points' but generally these aren't enough to recover your system in the event of considerable 'oh drat' moments.
AOMEI Backupper is excellent to use for advanced users and low-competence users alike. The user interface is intuitive (no weird looking icons you have to hover over to get tooltips that disappear after 3 nano seconds).
A backup can be done with Windows running (which is useful) and performs all the usual types of backup - full, differential and incremental. Backups can be stored locally or on a removable device or network device. This last feature works well, considering the plethora of network cards floating around. (It comes with a Linux and Windows boot disk ... you can't restore a PC without a boot disk).
The Pro version comes with a couple of extra useful tools - clone the system partition, useful for transferring a laptop from normal HDD to SSD.

The Windows operating system appreciates being reinstalled every now and then. After a year or so of use, it can 'clog up' with programs installed everywhere, slowing down boot time, etc. After performing a clean install, simply image the system and use this as your 'base image' in the future. A restore can take approx 20 minutes.

Ideally, people should image their drive weekly or at least monthly. I've seen too many PCs fail to boot after a Windows update or installation of 'new drivers'. It can take hours working out the problem, reinstalling drivers, etc. So much easily to go back to a point in time when everything worked.
