ATIH2017 functional before activation?

Thread needs solution

Once I install ATIH2017, can it create backups before activation?  I ask because...

I'm preparing to do a fresh install, and I wonder if I'll need to put it online before I do a backup.  (I like to do various stuff including getting my security setup installed/configured before going online.)

What I suggest you do is to create recovery media (USB or DVD) before doing fresh OS installation. You can then boot into the recovery media and create a backup. The recovery media does not check for activation as far as I am aware.

Great idea Ian, thank you very much!!

A related question:

Will I need to (put Win7 online and run Windows Update to) install Microsoft .NET framework before I can even install ATIH2017?

I don't recall ever having to install .NET as a requisite for installing ATIH 2017 or other versions, so this was either because it was already found to be installed or wasn't required?

Thank you very much for your reply, Steve.  I'm doing so "test" fresh-installs as prep; I'll do another today and see if I can install ATIH2017 right away or now.

It installed perfectly immediately after a fresh Win7Pro32bit install (not yet online).

Oh, and I see there's a 30-day Trial mode I could use while I prepare to go online.

Sweet.
