• Backup files Vista - "Windows could not find any backup sets [file path]."

  I have a Vista computer.  The hard drive broke so until I replaced it I backed up all the files on the computer to another computer running Windows 7. I did it in the backup and Restore Center.  I made a backup of files, not a full backup of the system (I've seen the full backup of the system mentioned in other posts, but that was not an option... maybe which is only available on Vista Premium).  In any case, I replaced the hard drive and then try to restore the files, but I get the message "Windows could not find any backup sets [file path]."  Anyone have any ideas?  Thank you.

  Here is an article on the restore procedure:http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-restore-files to make sure you do this right.  It's a selective restore of a full or selective backup (not a full restore from a full backup) - but since you did a full backup, it matches your process more closely than would a full restore.

  Here is an article on the advanced use of restoration (during normal restore does not work):http://www.mayankraichura.com/post/2009/08/06/Avdvanced-Restore-via-Windows-Vista-Backup-and-Restore-Center.aspx.

  I also found the following (but don't know if it of true or not):

  1. after the start of "backup and Restore Center."

  2. I chose "Advanced Restore"

  3. I was did not an administrator password... maybe because my account is an administrator account.

  4 choose "files from a backup made on a different computer.

  5. in the dialog box indicating "Select the location of the backup to restore", select "hard drive, CD or DVD...". »

  6. under the drop-down list box, select your drive/partition and continue

  7. If all the backups on your drive, it will show a list of them.

  8. in my case, he showed a backup, but in the backup location, it will show "backup location is not available."

  9. I was frustrated, but then I somehow just select this backup (Yes... even if he said that thebackup location is not available " ")

  10. and you press "next".

  11 guess what... no error!

  12. a window appeared asking me if I wanted to do a full restore, or I want to select specific folders or files.

  13. I selected the folders I wanted to restore and bingo... it their restored smoothly.

  14. so that the next time see a mistake, try to continue with him... ;)

  I don't know if this will help, but it does not provide much information about the process (when it works).  I hope you find any error or discrepancy in your procedure and it will clear up and allow you to restore.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Backup of files of Windows 7 should allow more control compared to incremental backups

  When you back up individual files of the user, Windows 7 creates automatically new games "full" backup periodically. This translates into the backup location filling that requires manual intervention to free up space. Users should have the ability to specify how many times a new "full" backup will be created, and what to do if not enough free space is available (e.g. - delete the oldest backup 'full' if sufficient space is not available).

  In addition, users must be able to specify a backup 'complete' should only be created once, and all subsequent backups should be only incremental or differential backups.
  The way this program works as it is today, it is useless because the backup destination will always fill to capacity and the user must manually free space. It should be automatic so that users never touch it unless they need restore a file.

  Hi nagyja,

  Welcome to Microsoft Windows 7 answers Forum!

  If you want to back up individual files, folders or a drive, you can right click on the file/folder/drive and then go to properties and then click Tools.
  Under the backup pane click back up now and in this way, you can set up a folder for an individual file/folder or drive.
   
  Your second question, as you have said that your computer does back upwards once. If you have backups are created automatically, you can have scheduled automatic backups.

  Use the following steps to disable scheduled backups:
  1. to begin, open the backup Center by typing "Backup" in the start menu search box and then click on the application "backup and restore".
  2. now click on "Set up backup" to start the Backup Wizard
  3. you are now prompted to select a destination to backup your files, that can be a mapped drive or a network location. Once this is done, click on next
  4. this window invites you to choose a type of backup, either typical or custom. If you have specific needs backup, you will need to follow the custom procedure. Otherwise, click the option "let windows choose", then "next".
  5. in this window, you have the option to 'Calendar', click change schedule and set to 'never '.

  I never properly backed up my files.  For now, I get a message in the Panel this Windows backup is in need of a cd, dvd or usb to continue. All I want to do is a successful backup.

  Hello

  1. what version of Windows you are using on the computer?

  2. don't you get this message when creating a backup or this message keeps popping up even when you are not trying to create a backup?

  3 does the backup work correctly if you are backing up to a local drive or external hard drive?

  You may receive this error message because the backup is not contested, it always depends on the total size of the backup files. I suggest using any external hard drive for backup windows and check if the problem persists.
