    Whenever I try to backup my files of paper on a DVD, I get the following information:

    How can I backup my data? Someone can help me. Thank you.

    Hello Liblue ·         Have you tried to backup to another source? ·         Have you tried another DVD? First of all, make sure that the backup you are trying to create does not exceed the capacity of the DVD. Try using a different DVD and check if you have the same problem.

  • Error - backup file is not found or is not the file you requested.

    Original title: restoration of Windows XP utility gives "file not found error.

    Hello
    I have Windows XP SP3 on my system. I tried to restore my backup file I had created a few months back. and I get the following error:
    "Backup file is not found or is not the file you requested.
    even though I am pointing to the correct file.

    It is possible (although I'm not sure) can I have left my backup file a different location for a more current. However, in the Restore Wizard, I'm still that it points to the current file.

    I followed the instructions of Dena in the following post:
    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_xp-system/cannot-restore-files-from-computer-backup-on/4c3ac6eb-c8f5-4DB9-BA56-e158e057f828

    However, it does not help. When I try to catalog them by following the steps, an hourglass appears, but there is no algorithmic activity event. So if I move my mouse even slightly, the hourglass disappears and is replaced by the pointer. Then when I try to work with the backup file, I get the same error as above.

    Please help me with this restoration! There is a huge amount of data which suddenly went 'pfoosh' one morning. people say we should have backups for buffering against these events, but a pity that my backup doesn't even work! Help, please! I would really appreciate it.

    Thank you

    Hello

    ·         You receive a specific error with the error code: "the backup file is not found or is not the file you requested"?

    ·         Is the backup stored locally or on an external drive?

    You try to run chkdsk on the drive that contains the backup. Later, check to see if the problem persists.

  • Get a message from catastrophic failure with error 0x8000FFFF on backup code

    Original title: I get a message of catastrophic failure.

    Error code 0x8000FFFF while trying to backup files every time. What should I do about it?

    Hi granniewilsey,

    This problem occurs because the backup process detects that the system drive is dirty.

    Windows Vista backup always includes the system as part of the backup drive. If the system drive is dirty, the backup process skips the system drive, and no snapshot of the system drive is created. Therefore, the backup cannot locate a snapshot of the system drive later, and the error occurs.

    To resolve this problem, run the disk check to fix the error on the system drive. To do this, follow the steps mentioned in the article below:

     

    Error message when you try to perform a backup system on a Windows Vista-based computer: "catastrophic failure (0x8000FFFF)".

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/973558

    Note: CHKDSK would attempt to recover bad sectors on the hard disk, in the course of this process there are chances of DATA loss from that particular area.

I did not use any backup software, just the copy command. But now when I try to open the backup files, I get "the user has no access prvileges.

    I tried ALL of the suggestions found here, unless I missed one, such as the safe boot mode and change the settings and owner privileges. I've logged as an administrator and even created administrator accounts but still no go. I changed the parameters of the owner of the entire disk in the hope of it cascading down to the files, but still no luck. I can get the files to show that the property has changed, but whenever I try to open them, the problem persists!

    The backup drive that I used is now connected to my desktop computer running Windows Vista. Is there a program I can use to hack and open files or y at - it some part that I have not found another workaround solution?

  • "Failed to process the backup file" - bookmarks JSON file

    I deleted my appdata files without thinking and then allowed my trash. When I opened firefox again all my favorites have disappeared. I used piriform recuva to find my deleted files and recover the backup JSON files 10 bookmark. When I try to restore my bookmarks, I get the message "failed to process the backup file". "Files are 95 KB in size, but when I open them with Notepad that they are empty, however, when you use the Restore tool, it is said ' elements of 480", which I assume is the amount of bookmarks, I had, which means that firefox can see data. The same happens for all ten backups that I recovered.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    What is the name of this file?

    Firefox can only look at the file name for the number of items.

    • < number > _ < hash > .json bookmark-YYYY-MM-JJ_

    The files in the bookmarkbackups folder are currently in compressed format .jsonlz4 (i.e., they show data binary like a ZIP compressed archive) and cannot be easily unzipped for access the JSON text format.
    The files are compressed means that a single error in the file will make it impossible to unpack the file.

    Have you checked all the available JSON backup to see if everything works?

    A backup created manually JSON is always not compressed, so can be easily inspected or opened in a text editor (Notepad > "Pretty Print"), but with a compressed file, it is much more difficult.

    Recovery of a file via an undelete utility is no guarantee that the space occupied by the file has not been used by another file, and so is corrupt.

  • Backup failed with error 18: the backup drive is not found

    Hello

    My guard time capsule saying "Backup failed" for a few days and I cannot access the old backup files either (when I enter my time machine it shows 'today', which is kind of scary, although I know that my old files is still there). I tried many ways to trouble shoot this problem, but none of this has worked. In my opinion, it's more a network problem and I made sure I connect Wi - Fi even my time capsule created.

    So far I have tried:

    -Delete the files from my internet (com.apple.airport.preferences.plist; preferences.plist and NetworkInterfaces.plist, etc.) and restart my mac

    -Remove TimeMachine.plist and restart my mac

    -Hard reset of my time capsule. Went through all configurations with success but then still backup missed (I hear the running time capsule when it is by train).

    I share this time capsule with my wife and she has no problem with that.

    I can only think of a possible alternation I did which could cause this problem.

    Because of unstable WiFi problem, I had deleted

    com Apple.Airport.Preferences.plist

    com.Apple.Network.identification.plist

    NetworkInterfaces.plist

    Preferences.plist

    or other files and reboot my mac * before * I had this problem with time capsule.

    However, this is not the first time I do it, and it wasn't a problem before...

    This could be the reason? If so, how to restore the network settings?

    Please help me with this problem. Really appreciate!

  • How to delete Windows Update backup files

    In Windows XP Pro, whenever an update from windows update has been installed, a backup file was created (example: C:\WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB977816$) is it a similar backup with windows file 7 about the update of windows, and if so, can it be deleted once it is established that the MS security update is successful?  Thank you, Sam.

    http://taurarian.MVPs.org/WU_XP/removing_old_windows_updates.htm

    Folders that have uninstall as part of the name (for example $NtUninstallKB282010$ who reside in C:\windows (hidden files) are window Hot difficulty updating folders/files) can be removed safely (providing ever, you wish to uninstall the updates). I recommend you leave these records for a period of at least one month to make sure that the update works correctly.

    These updates can be removed individually or together. To learn more about the update/s go on:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/xxxxxx
    NB: XXXXXX = the actual number, not to mention the "Q" or "Ko."

    Once you have removed the uninstall folders/files, then go to control panel, add/remove programs. Select the title of the corresponding Windows fix on the folder/file of the patch you just deleted, and select Delete. You will get a Windows error. This is because you deleted the uninstall folder/files. Simply choose OK and the entry will be removed from the Add/Remove Programs list.
