Excluding locations from a backup
Tue, 22 Jul 2008 13:53:19 +0300
Im trying to setup a backup in Vista, but I don't want the system to monitor
certain locations, such as my download folder and others such as where I
have subversion repositories and change too fast and too often.
Is that even possible ?

Vista Backup does not backup prefs.js (and what else ?)
Tue, 22 Jul 2008 05:18:43 -0500
I've recently had a rather disturbing experience with Vista Backup.
I recently had to restore my D: (data) drive from a full file backup.
The backup was only a day old, so no data should have been missing.
The restore seemed to work fine, however when I started Thunderbird it
acted like the profile was empty. A ...

Moving file dialog won't close
Mon, 21 Jul 2008 13:10:14 +0100
Whenever I move a file in vista to anywhere else, vista moves the file
but it won't close the move file dialog box that has that progress
bar.... The only way I have found that will get rid of these windows is
to restart explorer, but as you might imagine it is not very easy to
restart explorer every time I move or ...

Managing External Hard Drive - "You'll need to provide administrator permission"
Sun, 20 Jul 2008 23:35:34 +0100
Hello everyone. I'm hoping that someone here will be able to help me in
this predicament.
