Has it ever happened to you that you have unknowingly or unintentionally downloaded or executed some element on your computer that has modified the system? Shadow Defender is a tool designed to protect your documents and files from these situations. It is a paid platform that works from a virtual system so that in case of these changes, they only affect this non-physical section and not the traditional one.

Well, then, before going into its features, it should be noted that Shadow Defender is a service that we can use for free on our computer Windows for 30 days before having to pay for it. In other words, if you want to continue taking advantage of each of its functions after one month, you will have to pay the $35 one-time fee.

Shadow Defender generates a kind of mirror of all your contents, a replica of each one so that when these malicious files try to make changes in your computer, they are applied to the copy and not to the original contents. The advantage of this is that if you have to download specific programs or strange files and execute them, you will not be exposing your computer or its contents.

So none of the elements that are part of your hard drive will be at risk, and the truth is that Shadow Defender is a tool that we can recommend to anyone who, for various reasons, tends to download programs on their computer regularly and often can not be 100% sure about the origin of the same.

In this way, if some undesirable virus has been executed on your computer and some changes have been made, Shadow Defender will ensure that they only affect the copy of your original files and not the original files themselves. You have to reboot the computer, and you will get it working the same way it did before, and you can remove that virus without any unfortunate consequences.

The Shadow Mode or Shadow Mode that the developers of Shadow Defender have created is in charge of redirecting all the changes we produce on the system to the alternative virtual environment, keeping the original one safe. This ensures that our Windows remains as the first day unless we are aware of the changes we will print and want them to affect the disk.

And unlike other utilities similar to this one, we note that Shadow Defender is easy to use even for those who may have never tried their luck with this type of protection services for their system, which will undoubtedly be advantageous for many.

An almost final aspect of this application that we didn't want to leave unmentioned is that it allows us to set an access password to it, thanks to which we will be able to determine who can access it and who cannot. Especially those people who find themselves in a situation of sharing their PC with someone else will find this option significant for their privacy and security.

As for Shadow Defender's user interface, we must say that we liked it very much, as it maintains a very good balance between the visual aspect and its functionality, so we consider it a great success for its developers. Even though it is available in English, it is possible to make the most of it, thanks to its well-designed design.

Analyzing some of the main positive aspects of Shadow Defender, we especially liked that it does not automatically save changes. At the same time, the system keeps running in Shadow Mode . In the same way, we also like that it shows when we want the list of all the files that have been excluded and allows us to set a password to achieve a higher level of protection.

Of course, like any program, we can analyze, Shadow Defender has issues that have not convinced us. In this case, only one will bother some users and be indifferent to others. It happens that to use this software, it is necessary to restart the computer, so a little bit you will have to get the idea of closing all other open applications to be able to take advantage of it.

In summary, and in any case, we are sure that Shadow Defender is an application that many users will feel that the investment is worth it, a not minor issue when thinking about keeping our computer safe. Its cost seems acceptable to us considering that in case of irreversible modifications to our operating system, we can spend much more money to recover it.
