No Unicode Support in Registry Backup

No Unicode Support in Registry Backup! So the result is - ERROR!

Shane:
It does have some unicode support, can you post a screen shot of the error for me and post the backup log so I can see where it had trouble?

That way I can double checked if I missed a section or if the error was caused by something else. :wink:

Hi Shane, thanks for replying!
Below are 2 attachments, the screenshot and the logfile. It looks like the problem is with the Cyrillic encoding.

Shane:
Ah, while the tree view shows the text properly, the API calls I am using in windows are not the unicode ones when it comes to the file copy and other api calls.

Since working on my technicians toolbox I did update and find the unicode support api calls for almost all of that (I made sure the toolbox program is fully unicode supported, one of the reasons it took me 4 months to write). Looks like I need to work on a new version and replace all the api's and get the program fully unicode supported. :-)

Time to start making v2.0 I guess lol

Shane:
Just to let you know I started on version 2.0 yesterday, stayed up all night, haven't been to bed and I have been working on it all night. (I am a tad OCD lol, and if I dont program at night my computer repair business takes all my time during the day, so I have to be a late night programmer to get any real work done)

So, I replaced every single control in the program with unicode supported ones. I also then had to redo every single api and function that touches the file paths at all so that it would handle unicode. I also updated the logs to be saved in unicode as well so it will show up properly there.

So far so good, I loaded up a test system in vmware and made a user account with unicode chars, and after a lot of testing and fine tuning it made the backups perfectly :-)

Still have a few more areas to convert to support unicode, and then do some more testing, and if all goes well I will release it on Monday. :artist:
