Registry Backup Beta

<< < (51/79) > >>

Shane:
I held off putting out v1.2.2.

I want to find a way to handle the profiles not being restored on some systems because Windows doesn't put the move operation into the new system reg files.

Only way I can think of is to make the restore a 2 step process.

If a person wants to restore both the profiles and system reg files have it do the system reg first, reboot then do the profiles and reboot again.

I hate this idea but would be the only way to make sure it works for sure.

Just bugs me that the restore works fine on all my test machines. What is different about yours I wonder?

What version of Windows where you using again?

The system in question is Windows 7 x64 Ultimate.
I don't know if it is related to this issue, but I recently restored a backup image into my new SSD (that I'm using now as main system) using Norton Ghost 15.

Unfortunately I can't say if Norton Ghost 15 can be involved, because I didn't try to restore registry files with Registry Backup before to install Norton Ghost.

Except Norton Ghost in background, I'm using MSE as antivirus and Windows Firewall.

Shane:
I am also on Win 7 64bit and the restore works fine.

Still, I want this to work properly for everyone.

I wonder if there is a way for me to add the move file operations manually to the restore system reg file.

I need to do some research :-)

   Just Curious. Are you planning on a new version this weekend?

Shane:
I am actually working on the new version now.

Making it 1.3.0 instead.

I am redoing how it does the restore. After more tests I found that the user profiles where not being replaced if you restored the system reg files as well.

I am very close to posting it here for testing.

Basically what happens is when the profiles are restore the pending move operations are stored in the reg. Problem is it got stored in the old reg.

So the fix (If it works, testing now) is to take the pending moves and put it into the restored system reg file. :wink:
