Yes (Windows 2000 or later), make sure you read the floppy disk using the “emergency” mode and that you check the option in the settings to “recreate bad sectors” before you write the image file back to your new floppy disk. Some floppy disks use protection schemes that do not rely on bad sectors and might not work with Floppy Image.
