Burning the final backup
Now this is the easy part for all those who already know how to burn using DVD Decrypter so you can all go right ahead and skip this lesson but for those of you out there who don't know how to use DVD Decrypter I will explain in detail with pics to explain everything for you.
1. Start DVD Decrypter again or if you have it running still just switch back to it.
2. From the drop down menu in dvd decrypter select 'Mode' then 'ISO ->' and then finally select 'Write' as shown in the image below or alternatively you could just press the 'W' key for WRITE MODE.

Browse for the IMAGE-DECRYPTER.DVD file on your pc and open it. IMPORTANT INFO:
If you receive a "Invalid or unsupported image file format!" error when you load this file, it means your backup was made incorrectly!
