    Backup & Restore


    I've just created an image of the system and also a repair disk. The Backup & Restore window points to an incorrect drive (one of the card readers) but I can't change the source as the links won't respond. I attach a screenshot.

    Open Backup and Restore by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Maintenance, and then clicking Backup and Restore.
    Click Change settings. Administrator permission required If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. Point it to the correct drive and run/rerun backup.

    Thanks fishnbanjo, (or may I call you "fish"?), my problem is that the change settings link doesn't work.

    well looking at google, it seems that this backup feature is not performant at all.
    I, like many others, am unable to backup without an error.
    MSoft talk about an reparse point issue, but nobody explain what it is and how to avoid it.

    Back to Nero Backitup...
