Questions and answers

  • What is a ".RMT backup" and how does it differ from other backup file formats?

    A ".RMT backup" refers to a backup file format used by the Remote Desktop Manager (RDM) software developed by Devolutions. RDM is a centralized tool that allows users to manage remote connections, credentials, and other related information.

    .RMT backup files contain a compressed and encrypted backup of the RDM database, which includes all the configured connections, credentials, and other settings. These files are typically used for creating backups of the RDM database or for migrating the database to another system.

    The main difference between .RMT backup files and other backup file formats lies in the specific structure and content they store. While other backup file formats may vary in terms of compression, encryption, or the type of data being backed up, .RMT backup files are specifically designed for the RDM software and contain the entire RDM database in a compressed and encrypted form.

    It is important to note that the .RMT backup files can only be restored using the Remote Desktop Manager software. They cannot be directly accessed or restored using other backup software or tools.

  • How can I create a ".RMT backup" file for my data?

    To create a ".RMT backup" file for your data, you can follow these steps:

    1. Determine the software or application you want to use for creating the backup. ".RMT" is not a standard backup file format, so you need to identify the specific software that uses this format.
    2. Install the backup software: Download and install the backup software that supports the ".RMT" format. Ensure it is compatible with your operating system.
    3. Launch the backup software: Open the backup software you installed.
    4. Configure backup settings: Set up the backup preferences according to your requirements. This includes selecting the files or folders you want to back up, choosing the destination where you want to store the backup, and specifying any additional settings the software provides.
    5. Start the backup process: Initiate the backup process by clicking on the "Backup" or "Start Backup" button within the software. The software will begin creating the backup file in the ".RMT" format.
    6. Wait for the backup to complete: Depending on the size of your data, the backup process may take some time. Ensure your computer remains powered on and connected to the backup destination until the process finishes.
    7. Verify the backup: Once the backup process is complete, verify that the ".RMT" backup file has been created successfully. Check the destination folder you specified during the configuration step and confirm that the backup file exists.

    Remember to regularly update your backup to ensure your data is protected and secure.

  • Are there any specific software or tools required to restore data from a ".RMT backup" file?

    There is no specific software or tool mentioned for restoring data from a ".RMT backup" file. The file extension ".RMT" does not correspond to any widely recognized backup format or standard. It is possible that the ".RMT" extension is specific to a certain software or system, in which case you would need to use the corresponding software or tool provided by the creator of that software/system to restore the data from the backup file. If you could provide more information about the software or system that generated the backup file, it would be helpful in determining the appropriate software or tool for restoring the data.
