On Windows Vista Ultimate I made a complete backup using the Backup and
Restore Center ("Back up computer") to a USB 100Gb portable drive. It went
fine, and the drive shows a WindowsImageBackup folder on its root. It totals
about 65Gb. 2 days later that laptop crashed and I got another laptop with
the same Windows Vista Ultimate. I want to restore some selected files
(client work, not system or application) to the new laptop.
When I choose Advanced Restore -> Advanced Restore -> Files from a backup
made on a different computer -> Hard disk, CD, or DVD -> PHOTON F: (the name
of the USB 100Gb drive with the backup), it says:
Windows was not able to find any backup sets on F:\.
Please select a different location.
I searched for other posts, but didn't find one dealing with a selective
restore.
The drive and its subfolders are all visible with Explorer, so it's
definately there. What can I do to make it recognize it? I need those
files!!!
