PC games are one of the most popular formats in the World, but unfortunately, they still come as a CD or DVD, which can easily get scratched and damaged.
This is a big problem, which can be solved by making a backup or copy of the original disc, and then playing the game with that, instead of your valuable original.
However, many people want to do this.
.
. but cannot due to copyright protection and other problems.
Unfortunately, a small group of people decided to copy PC games illegally. This was very bad for us, because it now means that PC game developers have put all sorts of copyright protection on their games, making them very difficult to copy. And if you want to legitimately backup your games onto a blank disc, you will need to be able to break this copy protection.
The way that PC games are protected is actually quite simple. The computer game developers struck a deal with Microsoft to create an 'encryption' module which only Windows can read. This means that when the game is originally burnt onto the disc, it is done so in encrypted form, making it impossible for anything but Windows to read it.
This means that if you try and copy these protected discs, your computer will just be reading a collection of jumbled words and letters, making no sense at all and ruining the copy.
So to make a backup of your game, you need to use a tool or technique which allows your DVD copying device to recognize all the encryption that these discs have.
.
. and to copy them perfectly from one disc to another. And unfortunately, there are precious few programs & methods which allow you to do this, and we only know of one that works well.
