Good afternoon, I think my subject line explains what I'm looking for. 
I'm trying to find Windows-based backup, indoor drive imaging software 
that I can use with either jaws or Nvda?


It should be noted that I am running Windows 10 professional and a boot 
camp configuration. And I certainly have data on here which you would be 
very expensive to lose it. Such as the very software that I'm using to 
dictate this email. Dragon professional because of an additional 
disability unfortunately is not inexpensive. Just for the program 
retails for $300 US. And just to see what I really have to lose, I 
called Microsoft the other day to find out how much would cost to 
replace my Windows 10 professional product key should I ever have to, 
$200. Again this does not sound like it's something I want to just lose. 
Should this machine ever have a hard drive problem. Does anyone have any 
thoughts on what would be workable? The other thing that I've learned, 
just because a company says a piece of software is accessible, meaning 
usable by a blind person, the reality can sometimes be very different.


Please note that I am using the software I mentioned above to dictate 
this email, so if there's something in the email that doesn't quite make 
sense, asked me what I really intended to say? And I will do my very 
best to clear up any issue that may come up but being able to understand 
what I've dictated.


The signature below is because I've set the Windows machine up for 
primarily rating official deaf blind division emails. In fact that's 
about 85% of what I send in terms of email. The point is that this email 
is me personally since I own the machine which I'm writing it on, it 
certainly doesn't reflect the position, and/or view of the deaf blind 
division. Having mentioned the dictation, and mentioned a disclaimer I 
look forward to hearing from someone soon?
