• Windows Backup and Restore does not save F: and Q:?

  Windows backup and restore settings show that it is possible to backup C: and D:, but shows no F: and q.

  You save hidden records, for example HP-Tools or any disk recovery.

  Using windows backup, there are two types of backup

  (1) data up - obviously only backup data

  (2) image, which creates a complete picture of the system, to the date the image was created. You can then restore the image if necessary

  HP would be provided either a defined recovery disk, or more generally presented guidelines on how to create the recovery disks. It is a HP process, not a victory for MS a.

  Recovery discs using HP allows you to fix either the sys or a destructive restore to factory supplied State.

  If you restore to factory of the reader state Q is created when initialize you Office Starter

  BTW save you or Image to the external media, if the drive breaks down (this isn't a head crash) everything on that drive is lost, to the end user.

• Change password of Windows backup and restore

  I have recently changed my password administrator and need my Windows backup so that this new change. When I go through the button "check your network credentials ' Options, and select the"re - enter your user name and password"need me through the page"Configuration Backup. Without asking me to effectively re-enter credentials.

  So, despite this ridiculous process. How can I re - enter the correct credentials that windows backup needs.

  Kind regards.

  Hi Martin,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  Since you are already connected to the PC via the administrator password, backup and restore will require not just any password because it is a feature of Windows. It is possible that you need to enter the password if you are working on network PC using Backup and Restore.

• Windows backup and restore error code 0 x 80070002? sdutil.exe won't solve the backup problem?

  I had the BSOD after upgrade to a new processor. I had fixed and had improved from 32 to 64 Vista.  Now, I need to restore my documents, videos, etc. I get an 0x8100001A error code. I looked online for a solution and found a thread on Vista64 (link) to redo the Mediaid.bin file. I get this error code during the performance of the sdutil.exe (renamed abc.exe to type more easily)

  MediaID C:\Windows\System32>F:\ABC.exe F:\GlobalCatalog.wbcat F:\
  == Production Mediaid.bin file ==

  Loading the global catalog information...

  An error has occurred:
  The system cannot find the specified file. (0 x 80070002)

  What can I do? Why hasent microsoft tried to solve the problem? I know that the files are there, I can find zip files. The only reason that I didn't just unzip them is because video files are separated between the zippers. This has something to do with my other (link) post? What of the fact that I went from 32 to 64 years (the two Vista Home Basic with the same activation code)? When I change to mediaid mediaID I get access denied as a result.

  I think that I fixed it.  For those of you who need this work, that's what I did.

  I created a new mediaid.bat file as indicated on vista64.

  A ran the restore backup and it has not worked.

  Hidden files from a backup from another computer and run the restore again.

  bakcup location it always says the location was unknown... but the restore seems to work fine...

  will close the post if it worked!

• Windows Backup and Restore problem

  I have created an incremental backup for a while (since January) on a disk external drive plugged my USB2.0.

  Recently my computer crashed and I did a new install of Vista.
  After the update to Vista, I decided to restore my files from the outside.

  I did the restore advanced, and it finds all the files and the backup. But when I continue to make the effective restoration, it gives me a "the backup file is not found. Check your hardware configuration or restore from a backup different (0x8100001A). »
  I checked the permissions and all members have full control of everything.

  I also tried to change the drive letter, but no dice.

  The strange thing is that concludes the backup, and if I click on "Add files", he finds my backed up files! But when I proceed to restore, it only will not do.

  Any ideas?

  Hi OrangeL89,
   
  This problem can occur because the Mediaid.bin file is missing. The Mediaid.bin file may be missing if you move the backup directory to another location.
   
  If the backup directory is on a different drive or a different file share, and the original backup location is still available, follow these steps to resolve the problem:

  1. Search the root directory of the drive or the file share where the backup was originally stored.
  2. Copy the Mediaid.bin file.
  3. Locate the root directory of the location where the backup is currently stored.
  4. Paste the Mediaid.bin file.

     For example, if the original backup location is drive D and that the backup has been moved to the E drive, copy the Mediaid.bin file located in the root directory of drive D to the root directory of drive E.

  5. Try to restore another backup file.

  Alternatively, you can follow the article below:
   
  Error message when you use the option restore files to restore a backup file on a Windows Vista-based computer: "the restoration has not completed successfully. "Error code: 0x8100001A.

• Windows Backup and Restore always fails when you create a system image.

  When I run the Windows backup, it works fine until it gets to create a system image, it goes for about a minute then says "Done creating System Image" then the progress bar turns red. I've already defragged, virus research and checked to find errors on the disk external drive all come with nothing and no help.

  I found this suggestion but have no idea what that means or how to do

  Number 4: Error Code 0 x 80070003.

  If the reparse point is a mount point or a junction point to the root of another volume, you may experience the following issues when you try to restore the files under the reparse point:

  • You cannot restore to the original location if the reparse point directory is removed.

    To work around this problem, re-create the reparse point directory.

  • You cannot restore to another location if you click to select the box restore files in their original subfolders in the file restore wizard.

    To work around this problem, clear the check box restore files in their original subfolders when you run the wizard to restore the file.

  Do you think that would help and please tell me what to do, it's all so frustrating when you have no idea what the jargon means or where access things.

• Windows Backup and Restore, backup failure, 0x8078002A__

  New computer e5410 dell laptop with windows 7, drives external usb different two (backup), the two iomega, different models.

  When I run backup on windows machine 7, backup takes place up to the ~ 60% complete then omits to say 'backup did not complete', even failure for the two usb drives.

  I look at the info screen on. He gets in the "system image" and then fails. Failures are consistent with 57-60% when the failure occurred, in the three times I was able to watch it, it always happens when "creating system image" appears on info.

  I tried both drives usb on windows machine 7 and both fail. Tried both drives on windows xp computers (2), and both work.

  IMHO, it's a problem of windows 7 but I have been wrong before. I am far from a guy from the computer if the specifications are welcome.

  any help appreciated.

  Hi John,.

  To answer your question:

  I got about 50 systems on the network. They are on a domain, and I have a mix of Win 7 and 8.1.

  Win7 systems seem to be the problem.

  The Solution I found pending...

  The share for each user folder must be created by the system of the user in question. This sets the special folder permissions. (Originally, all sharing of backup folders had created by the domain administrator... It did not work. ) Once the user has created the folder in the sharing and the backup configuration has been created, and the domain administrator credentials are defined. The backups worked perfectly.

  If another error occurs at this point, I ran a chkdsk /f on the system and after that no problem remains.

  All backups are now working properly.

• DVD how much we need for the files backup with backup and restore program?

  Hello how are you?
  DVD how much we need for the files backup with backup and restore program? Y at - it large differences in the time and space between write backups on DVD and external hard drive?

  I do not understand your question.  Asked how the space has been used on your C: drive and you answered 60 GB.  Now you say your PARTITION C: is 60 GB with only 20 GB used?  I really don't understand what you're so confused.  It's simple arithmetic grade 3rd.  What is space you USED on the C: drive, that multiply by 0.7 to obtain the amount of space will be used on your backup disk after compression.  Divide this number by 4.7 and round.  That's how many DVDs you'll need if you insist on the use of DVDs for backup.  Then

  (1) If you are using 60 GB, the answer is (60 x.7) / 4.7 = 8.936.  I rounded up to 9 and added 1 just to be sure.

  (2) If you use only 20 GB, the answer is (20 x.7) / 4.7 = 2.97 rounded up to 3.  Add 1 and get 4.

  If you use only 20 GB, I am very surprised, because almost any important installation of Windows 7 is going to take more than 20 GB.

  All of this assumes that you do NOT use the Windows backup and restore program, but one that I recommended.  When I used the windows one, the results were several times the space that I used on my C: partition.

  Good luck.

• Satellite P750/P755 - backup and restore Windows 7

  Hello

  My hard drive is about to fail on my Windows 7 Satellite P750; I get warnings of impending failure for a month now. I bought a hard drive again, and he's ready to go, but I am unable to create a backup and restore point. I get an error message 0 x 81000037: "snapshots of files cannot be read.

  Let me give you a part of the history of my machine before we get to the question. Windows 7 is pre-installed on this machine. A year ago, I created a new partition and installed Linux. Linux then took over the responsibilities of the boot. A couple of weeks, I deleted the Linux partition. This gave me a problem because the computer could not start. Fortunately I had recently created a return upwards and the restore point, and during the process, I was asked if I wanted to create a Windows 7 Home Premium repair disc. I could use this CD to access a command line tool that makes the new bootable machine.

  However, I have more a hidden on my machine boot partition (at least according to the disk management snap-in I'm not). Now, I get the above error when I try to create a new backup and restore point. I don't have a copy of the previous backup and restore point (I deleted it to make room for a new).

  From my research, apparently, one of the possible causes of the error 0 x 81000037 is related to the size of the hidden boot partition. Because I do not have the hidden boot partition I fear this could be the cause.

  There are other possible causes of this error. For example, a virus that the antivirus refuses to give access to during the back up and restore the partition, and junction points in to save readers who are the mounted volumes. I ran a full scan on my computer and cannot find any threats. I checked my junction points (which are a bit) and none are mounted drives.

  This brings me to suspect that the lack of a boot partition is the problem. I saw in the forums of some suggest it is better to back up all my data in the traditional way (already done, since you ask), install the new drive to hard and then reinstall Windows 7.

  So eventually, we get to my question!

  Windows 7 is installed on my machine, I think that I don't have the disks to reinstall on a new hard drive. Is this correct? I am able to get a copy?

  To be honest, I wouldn't reinstall Windows on a hard disk again, rather than using a return to the top of the spirit and point of restoration. I have a LOT of programs and rubbish that have accumulated in it in the (almost) last 3 years.

  Thank you for your patience. If there are some details that might be useful, but I left out (I'm sure there is) please let me know.

  > I think Windows 7 is installed on my machine, that I don't have the disks to reinstall on a new hard drive. Is this correct? I am able to get a copy?

  You have not all discs because Toshiba provides clean recovery disc creator software which is always pre-installed on new laptop computers.
  This recovery disk tool or support of creator creates the recovery disk that can be used to recover the laptop.

  It was a big mistake not to create this disk, however, you have the possibility to order this disc here:

• Can I download Windows XP Backup and Restore Wizard?

  When I bought my computer I did not receive the Windows XP disks.  I want to make a backup of the entire system on an external hard drive, as opposed to the individual file backup.  All the help files I've found say to insert the XP disc.  Then I found the Backup Wizard online and install it directly to my computer?

  Since the Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system request when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

  Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

  If you are using XP Home Edition, you will need to install the XP Backup utility yourself and here are some instructions on how to do it.

  If you are not using XP Home and XP backup is to give you some grief, try to describe the issue in more detail.

  The backup program is automatically installed on XP Professional, but not on XP Home. If you have the genuine bootable XP Home installation CD, insert it into your system and navigate to this folder:

  \ValueAdd\MSFT\NTBACKUP

  Double-click the Ntbackup.msi file to start the installation.

  Here is a nice article from Microsoft which tell you all this:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=302894

  Here is another article that explains how to:

  http://www.winxptutor.com/Ntbackup.htm

  If you don't have an installation CD and need to download the Ntbackup.msi file, here is the link if you can download:
  http://www.winxptutor.com/Ntbackup.htm

  If you are using in relying on the built in NT backup to back up your system, it is the primitive technology (obviously - because you will be asked for a floppy disk).  If you have a disaster (even minor), you will have a big problem, trying to recovery your stuff, if you don't have a floppy drive.

  If you want to make a backup, it makes sense to use modern technology - and that the technology is not integrated into XP.

  There are many popular options for XP Backup and imaging software (s) of third parties.

  A people a popular seem to love East of Acronis.

  With this (free 30 day trial) you backup, you can make a bootable CD or bootable USB (which is modern, huh?) and use than disaster.

  They used to have a completely free version - maybe no more - just the trial, then you must buy it, but it is highly respected.

  It is so much more robust than the XP Backup, it's laughable.

  Many other options if you do a little research on Google...

  Here are a few products that PML has proposed may be attractive (use Google to find them):

  Acronis
  Macrium Reflect
  Paragon backup and restore
  DriveImageXML

  Some disk cloning software for you to Google ideas:

  Acronis True Image Home 11

• Upgrade Vista Home Premium to Ultimate - Windows complete PC Backup and Restore

  Dear Madam, dear Sir

  Upgraded my laptop HP DV7 Vista Home Premium to Ultimate, mainly to use Windows complete PC Backup and Restore.

  The restore time and unfortunately no option in the boot menu at startup to restore system from images. No menu advanced etc. I guess starting always remains at the level of the premium and does not provide "Windows complete PC Backup and Restore" restore options.

  Grants menu of system restore points, with only the last good restore point and no option to select point of previous restoration or system image to restore from.

  Mmmm nice ideas...

  Thanks in advance

  Good day
