I've been manually backing up my data files on a weekly basis, and I'm
finding that Vista overlooks a number of files when I use the Advanced
Search. I do a search for files modified or created > a given date, and
Windows gives me a list. But there's always a few that it misses. Has anyone
else experienced this? I realize that manual backups may not be the most
efficient way to go, but I don't have the budget for an external drive and I
haven't found Roxio very helpful. In fact, when I was using XP my method
worked unfailingly. What's going on with Vista?
 
I would guess that the OP is backing up to a CD or DVD?

I have looked for files by date as the OP did, and so far it has found all
the files that I think are there, but cannot claim to have tested
exhaustively.
