Working with shadow copies
In the DeviceLock console, you can perform the following on search results from shadow logs:
Opening a shadow copy
Click Open under the desired search result.
A shadow copy of the file opens in an application configured for this file type on the computer running the DeviceLock console. If no such application is available, the Open With dialog box appears to select the application with which to open the file. Shadow copies of files from Parallel Port devices open in the DeviceLock Printer Viewer.
The DeviceLock Printer Viewer can display shadow copy of printed documents in the PostScript and native print spooler format, send it to the printer again, or save it as a graphics file (such as BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG, EMF or TIFF). The following print spooler formats are supported: PostScript, PCL5, PCL6 (PCL XL), HP-GL/2, GDI printing (ZjStream) and EMF Spooled Files.
Saving a shadow copy
Click Save under the desired search result. Then, in the dialog box that appears, choose the folder and specify the name of the file to hold the copy.
Files sent or received by users are saved in the Shadow Log and can be saved from the log to a local or network folder.
Data that users burn to CD/DVD/BD discs is stored in the Shadow Log as CUE images - one image per each CD/DVD/BD burned.
CD/DVD/BD images as well as other data that originally was not transferred as files (direct media access or serial/parallel ports transfer), have auto-generated names based on the action type, drive letter or device name, and date/time (such as direct_write(E_) 19_18_29 17_07_2006.bin).
Each CD/DVD/BD image is composed of two files: a .bin data file (such as direct_write(E_) 19_18_29 17_07_2006.bin) and the .cue sheet file with the same name as its data file (such as direct_write(E_) 19_18_29 17_07_2006_bin.cue). These two files can be used to mount the CD/DVD/BD image in applications that support the CUE format, such as Cdrwin, Nero, DAEMON Tools, IsoBuster, UltraISO, WinISO and many others.
Opening and saving a shadow copy in the built-in viewer
Click View under the desired search result. Then, in the application window that opens, choose from the following view options:
•Hex - Displays data in hex as well as in words.
•Autodetect Text - Enables the auto-detection of encoding for text and displays data in textual format only.
•ANSI Text - Specifies ANSI encoding for text and displays data in textual format only.
•UTF-16 Text - Specifies Unicode UTF-16 encoding for text and displays data in textual format only.
•UTF-16BE Text - Specifies Unicode UTF-16 (Big Endian) encoding for text and displays data in textual format only.
To save a copy the file, click Save in the built-in viewer. Then, in the dialog box that appears, choose the folder and specify the name of the file to hold the copy.
