• Why can I not see the files I back up by using the backup and restore of Vista

  Can someone help me?  I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 and implemented backup and restore feature Vista so that every Sunday he automatically backs up my computer to my external drive.  I was on the computer when he said it starts up and that upward was completed successfully.  I assummed everything was fine until today when I show my father my drive external and noticed that none of the backup of files were there... or at least I did not see them.  The only files on the disk were the ones I put manually on here from my old computer.  I then ran a manual upward using Vista and again it says backup successfully completed.  I then watched the external hard drive and once again no new files.  The strange thing is the back up and restore program shows all the dates he has saved and also allows me to restore files from the back to the top.  To do this, I deleted a file I didn't really need out of my hard drive and then is gone to restore program and found the file and restored.  Problem is that the program does not say where he makes the file from.  What is going on?  Are backup files of certain types of hidden file I don't see unless I use the backup and restore program under vista?  I am currently running Vista Home Premium on a 32 bit system and the external hard drive I have is a Western Digital My Book Essential Edition.

  Windows backup is stored in a folder with the same name as your computer.  Open a command prompt and type echo %ComputerName% or startup, right-click on computer, properties.  You should see that % ComputerName % folder on your external drive, and in this context, a backup set.

• I used the backup and restore of the backup C on pc. Then tried to open saved files with IE and started acting weird.

  zip files

  I used the backup and restore of the backup C on pc.  Then tried to open the files saved with IE.  IE went into free fall.  ???

  I have no idea what opened the backup files when you have double-clicked, or if you will not quote you took after doing this...  However, the official way to 'Browse' the content of the backup...

  You can view the contents of your backup by opening the wizard to restore files.

  1. Open backup and restore by clicking on the button start , clicking Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance and then click Backup and restore.

  2. Do one of the following:

     • To view your files, click Restore my files.

     • To display files all the, click on restore files for all users. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  3. Do one of the following:

     • To browse the contents of the backup, click Browse for files or click Browse for folders.

       When you browse folders, you will not be able to see the files in a folder. To view individual files, use her browse for files option.

     • To search the contents of the backup, click search, type all or part of a file name, and then click search.

  If you back up to the top PC (VHD) integer then you mifght consider this trick:
  http://www.Petri.co.il/mounting-Vista-backups-using-Windows-complete-PC-Backup.htm

  According to the edition of Windows Vista that you have (and how useful, you will find the possibility to look at old versions of a given file and possibly restore), this could be useful to you:
  http://www.ShadowExplorer.com/
  (not a replacement of relief.)

  With regard to the rate of success vs. failure rate of backup - it is difficult to measure.  Indeed most of the people backs up incorrectly.  It's really * not * enough to set a backup and forget about it.  If you test ever that your backups work/glance to see if you are backing up the good thing - it's just not wise.  Although most people expect that it is essential that the backups were working properly (not a test, a real emergency) to be discovered.  Most individuals who report failures, unfortunately, fall into this category "when my aircraft crashed and I went to my backups - it turns out _ backup _ does not and never told me...» ».

  A question... If you manually create a ZIP file (not a backup) - can you still Explorer in it as a folder?

  To test... Create a folder on your desktop.  Copy some files into it - of different types.  I say COPY and not MOVE on the goal here - because you can just blow this folder and all that results from this folder later if it was all fair copies of things.

  Make a right click on this folder and choose "send to" and "compress (ZIP) file and give a name to the new 'folder '.  (It's really a file.)  On your desktop, you should have the original folder you created and copied some stuff in, and a new "folder" with the name you just gave.  If you open the 'new' folder - you should see the name of the folder that is still on the desktop and go to this folder, you should see the files.  You literally use Windows Vista to the 'discovery' inside a ZIP file as if it were a folder.

• I'm unable to connect to the internet and I also can not use the WinXP system restore.

  No internet connection and I also can not use the WinXP system restore because it gives me an error at the 'end' which said: it cannot be restored to an earlier date.  I run AntiMalware bytes and StopZilla and erased all that they found.  Now I can't even connect to the internet.  When I go to the command prompt, it gives me an error contact the Support of MS that I know means I have a virus or a trojan that I should just get a time out?  My other PC on the same network is fine and connected.  The NETWORK card is fine, just does not know how to get rid of what it is, I have and to top it all impossible to connect to the internet to try all of the tools that can help.  Someone at - it ideas?

  The error you get at the end of the restoration of the system is typical of some anti-virus programs (Norton, especially) that interfere with the restoration of the system.  Try to start your computer in Mode safe (on several occasions, key to tap F8 while your computer starts) and run safe mode system restore.

  Additional information is necessary to treat your network problem.  Try to bring up a command prompt (start-> Run-> "cmd") or if it does not, try (start-> Run-> "command.com") and enter the command:
  ipconfig/all
  and after the info that appears in the State resulting.

  Also, check the logs of your system related errors (start-> Run-> "eventvwr.msc") and click on 'System' in the left column.

• Windows 7 system restore is impedes on the screen "system restore is initializing.

  Thanks for the response back...

  I was excited to your idea to check services and services to load... I didn't know about services of dependant' for the Volume Shadow Copy service and windows backup services... I check them and the services required and dependent services are all started and running...

  There is no error all messages when the system restore runs... it's just not always... (Even running overnight).    When I eventually give up and reboot the pc, I get an error message that the system restore did not complete...

  FYI... my device manager also shows as being very well... and I gave you on a previous message in the event log errors...

  Thank you for all this help and information... even if I have not fixed my problem, I've learned a lot about Windows 7...     :-)

  I have a very similar problem with a Windows7 Ultimate x 64 system.

  Services run, my drive is ok, I have a lot of space (> 10 GB), I suffer from any other anomaly/Windows error, but the system restore will not end but freezes on the screen "system restore is initializing. The event log is not shine any light on this because the last event in the newspaper it is that the event log service was stopped, some hang up after the fact and did not get connected.
  Even system restore seems to work, there is a lot of activity of the disk for 5-10 minutes, then the disk activity stops and then the system just rest it seems doing nothing, rather than the SR. I have no problems to paralyze this system there may be something that simple.  Running in Mode safe is without help.
  I ran SFC/scannow in Windows (3 times in fact) but this does not help, either.

• The screen resolution has changed.

  After that I have updated to the latest version of Muse, my screen is enlarged. It looks like the screen resolution has changed. How can I change the resolution of the screen on Muse?

  On Windows, 2014.3 Muse now supports 100%, 150% or 200% resolution, according to the scale factor you set in Control Panel. My guess is that you have your control panel set at about 125 per cent and Muse chose the scale factor supported 'closer', which is 150%. We've heard a few users that they would prefer Muse to continue functioning at 100% in this case.

  This sounds like the situation you're in?

  Now, you need to set the scale factor to your screen to 100% having muse running at 100%, but we are working on a solution in the short term to say the Muse to operate at 100% without changing your scale factor of Panel controls.

• My dell Inspiron 1150 windows xp password son has locked and the screen will not change, we do not know the password or have we not the reset disk, how can connect to reset password

  My dell Inspiron 1150 windows xp password son has locked and the screen displays the dell logo and says that I need the master password or administrator, my son can't remember and we do not have the reset disk, is it possible to get and reset the password or enter the system

  If you are using XP Home Edition, the built-in Administrator account probably doesn't have a defined password. You can start in safe mode, where this account will be selectable when connecting. It allows to connect and change the password of your normal connection.

  To start in safe mode, keep hitting F8 twice a second after turning on the PC until you get the start menu where safe mode is selectable by the up/down arrow keys, and then press ENTER.

  If you are using XP Professional, try to connect using the built-in Administrator account. You don't need to do it in safe mode (although you can if you wish). If your normal login screen is a display of the user symbol and hit ctrl-alt-del twice to get to login to text entry. Type administrator as the user name and try a blank password.

• I use a blu - ray disc as my backup media by using the backup and restore, but windows will say still unable to perform this task

  I have a HP h9 - 1250t and can never use a blu ray disc tp save my work using the command from the windows Explorer which is strange since I use blu - ray disc in my dell xps 14, any help on this?

  Hello edilbertojun,

  Backup stores data in a compressed format on optical drives and blu - ray is an optical device device, I don't think you can use Windows built in backup and restore functionality.

  You must use a backup solution 3rd party backup on the Blu - ray disc.

  I may be wrong so that other members of the community can be better able to solve this problem.

• Pavilion dm4-3090se: how to use the SSD after restoration of the system of Windows backup disks?

  Hello

  After a lot of work, I finally could restore my OS using Windows backup disks that I created a few years back. (The OS has been corrupted when the power has been accidentally deleted from the system and the battery was dead)

  Restoring backup widows put everything on 444 GB C drive.  Nothing I put on the SSD drive d:-20 GB and there is nothing in the tools of HP E: drive - 4 GB

  How can I make use of the SSD drive to help speed up the system?  I see the system starts and runs more slowly now.  I'm ready to blow the current operating system and re-run the Windows backup utility.  But I need to know how to use the SSD during the restoration.

  Any help is appreciated.

  Thank you

  Bob

  Hey @llebrez,
  
  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! This is a great place to find solutions and help our community!

  I understand that you have some information about using the SSD in your HP Pavilion dm4 Beats Edition Entertainment Notebook. I'd be happy to help you with that.

  The SSD in your laptop is used for a technology called Intel Smart Response. Intel Smart Response uses the SSD as a type of Cache smart to help load the items faster. The reason why that is not used currently is because the restoration of the system is not designed to use the SSD for intelligent caching and is not able to establish that on its own.

  If you want to configure Intelligent caching on your laptop, you can follow this guide provided by overclock.net: how: implement the Intel Smart Response Technology (SSD caching)

  I hope this helps. If you have more questions that I'm able to answer for you, please do not hesitate to ask.

  Please hold me.

  See you soon.

• I don't want to use the screen lock on Windows 8. American holidays on the calendar,

I hope that techno-creepiness will not worsen in the future.
