MiniTool ShadowMaker 4.8 Brings New Folder Support and UI Fixes

This Week

VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MiniTool Software Limited announced a new version of its Windows backup software: MiniTool ShadowMaker 4.8. This release supports creating and renaming new folders when selecting a backup destination, improves interface display, and fixes several known issues.

What’s New in MiniTool ShadowMaker 4.8?

  1. Destination Folder Creating and Renaming: In MiniTool ShadowMaker 4.8, users can create new folders and rename existing ones when selecting a target destination. This enhancement makes it easier to organize and manage backup files. For instance, you can create separate folders for system backups, personal documents, or work projects, and rename them in ways that suit your needs. By reducing confusion and improving file management efficiency, this feature ensures that the right backup can be located quickly whenever system/file restoration is required.
  2. Clearer Mount Prompts: The mounting process provides more detailed prompts after the update, informing users where to view the mounted volume.
  3. Updated Interface Icons: The menu icon in Manage has been updated in MiniTool ShadowMaker 4.8. The original three-dot icon confused some users, so it has been replaced with a clearer three-line icon for better recognition.
  4. USB Media Creation Fix: Fixed an issue where the bootable media creation tool did not support a USB hard drive in the previous versions.
  5. Addressed Shared Disk Adding Failure: This update resolved an issue in the bootable edition where adding previously backups from a shared drive would get stuck on the Shared interface.
  6. Enhanced Media Builder Display: The issue of Media Builder display on high-DPI screens has been resolved, ensuring all UI elements are visible.
  7. Additional Fixes and Improvements: MiniTool ShadowMaker 4.8 also resolved several user-reported issues, including blocking multiple instances from running, preventing the window from reappearing after clicking Show Desktop, and making file sync navigation more user-friendly.
