See what you mean about VSN. If disk imaging is used to clone two drives or partitions then the VSN will be the same. Bummer. I don't know how to find the Disk Signature that same thread mentioned.

Tried the new exe. It still has both tests, so need to drop the first set.

IF EXIST "K:\Windows\System32\Config\sam" set WindowsDrive=K:
IF EXIST "J:\Windows\System32\Config\sam" set WindowsDrive=J:
IF EXIST "I:\Windows\System32\Config\sam" set WindowsDrive=I:
IF EXIST "H:\Windows\System32\Config\sam" set WindowsDrive=H:
IF EXIST "G:\Windows\System32\Config\sam" set WindowsDrive=G:
IF EXIST "F:\Windows\System32\Config\sam" set WindowsDrive=F:
IF EXIST "E:\Windows\System32\Config\sam" set WindowsDrive=E:
IF EXIST "D:\Windows\System32\Config\sam" set WindowsDrive=D:
IF EXIST "C:\Windows\System32\Config\sam" set WindowsDrive=C:

IF EXIST "K:\Windows\tweaking.com-regbackup-DELL-P370.dat" set WindowsDrive=K:
IF EXIST "J:\Windows\tweaking.com-regbackup-DELL-P370.dat" set WindowsDrive=J:
IF EXIST "I:\Windows\tweaking.com-regbackup-DELL-P370.dat" set WindowsDrive=I:
IF EXIST "H:\Windows\tweaking.com-regbackup-DELL-P370.dat" set WindowsDrive=H:
IF EXIST "G:\Windows\tweaking.com-regbackup-DELL-P370.dat" set WindowsDrive=G:
IF EXIST "F:\Windows\tweaking.com-regbackup-DELL-P370.dat" set WindowsDrive=F:
IF EXIST "E:\Windows\tweaking.com-regbackup-DELL-P370.dat" set WindowsDrive=E:
IF EXIST "D:\Windows\tweaking.com-regbackup-DELL-P370.dat" set WindowsDrive=D:
IF EXIST "C:\Windows\tweaking.com-regbackup-DELL-P370.dat" set WindowsDrive=C:

The problem still exists where I can have a multi-boot system and ran the backup from I: one time and from C: another. Your test would always find the one on C: and copy the files saved from I: to C:.

As I mentioned before, I have Win 7, called DELL-P370 on I: and Win 8 Consumer Preview, also called DELL-P370 on I: I do it this way so the computer name is always the same on my network irregardless of which version I boot. Makes sharing much easier.

Just to finish the thing with vol, this works:

@echo off
set l=c:
vol %l% | find "C89E-70E8"
echo %l% errorlevel %errorlevel%
if %errorlevel% EQU 0 goto found

set l=d:
vol %l% | find "C89E-70E8"
echo %l% errorlevel %errorlevel%
if %errorlevel% EQU 0 goto found

set l=e:
vol %l% | find "C89E-70E8"
echo %l% errorlevel %errorlevel%
if %errorlevel% EQU 0 goto found

set l=f:
vol %l% | find "C89E-70E8"
echo %l% errorlevel %errorlevel%
if %errorlevel% EQU 0 goto found

set l=g:
vol %l% | find "C89E-70E8"
echo %l% errorlevel %errorlevel%
if %errorlevel% EQU 0 goto found

set l=h:
vol %l% | find "C89E-70E8"
echo %l% errorlevel %errorlevel%
if %errorlevel% EQU 0 goto found

"C89E-70E8" drive not found
goto done

:found
echo "C89E-70E8" is drive %l%

:done

On my computer, C89E-70E8 is the VSN for my C: drive where Win 7 is installed and where I ran the reg backup. Doing it this way would not require you to write or look for a specific file. Just a suggestion.

There may be a way to put the above in a for loop but I couldn't figure out how to do it.

I think you can use the vol command:

>vol /?
Displays the disk volume label and s

VOL [drive:]

>vol c:
Volume in drive C is D370_C
Volume Serial Number is C89E-70E8
>vol d:
Volume in drive D is D370_D
Volume Serial Number is 9402-7174

It returns a unique VSN (Volume Serial Number) for each drive or partition. Now to figure out how to parse that info in the dos_restore.cmd file and I think it would be fail safe.

I booted the Recovery Console. My Win 7 boot drive was still C: even though I have a 100MB System Reserved partition. I know you can't depend on that though.

I guess a marker file on the partition is the best way to go unless each partition has a unique UUID or something that you can query in both environments.

The problem with a marker file is if there is more than one bootable Windows partition and Backup is used on each, then how do you tell which one to use?

Interesting problem. Could you key off the partition name? Each one has to be unique I think. For instance, mine are D370_C through D370_I.

Another possibility would be to add a line to backup_info.txt:

WindowsDrive=C: (or whatever the boot drive actually is)

then you could read that from the dos_restore.cmd file but that's a lot more work. Easiest just to use the HOMEDRIVE variable when creating the cmd file.

56

Tweaking.com Support & Help / Re: Registry Backup Beta

« on: May 24, 2012, 06:58:11 pm »

I don't know, but what I meant was when you create the dos_restore.cmd file, use the HOMEDRIVE variable then, or is the cmd file already built and not being generated on the computer when backup is run?

Next time I get a chance I'll start the Recovery Console and see what environment variables are set.

Rebooted with 0.9.7 and there is a problem with the dos_restore.cmd file.

IF EXIST K:\WINDOWS\System32\Config\sam set WindowsDrive=K:
IF EXIST J:\WINDOWS\System32\Config\sam set WindowsDrive=J:
IF EXIST I:\WINDOWS\System32\Config\sam set WindowsDrive=I:
IF EXIST H:\WINDOWS\System32\Config\sam set WindowsDrive=H:
IF EXIST G:\WINDOWS\System32\Config\sam set WindowsDrive=G:
IF EXIST F:\WINDOWS\System32\Config\sam set WindowsDrive=F:
IF EXIST E:\WINDOWS\System32\Config\sam set WindowsDrive=E:
IF EXIST D:\WINDOWS\System32\Config\sam set WindowsDrive=D:
IF EXIST C:\WINDOWS\System32\Config\sam set WindowsDrive=C:

I have Win 7 on C: and Win 8 Customer Preview on I. I guess this will work as it will see the one on C: last and set the WindowsDrive variable correctly, but I think a better method would be for you to look at the HOMEDRIVE environment variable then set WindowsDrive to that value when building the batch file. Should always work.

Ran a manual backup and it worked. Checked C:\Windows\temp and not I have two sets of vss files:

Quote

C:\Windows\Temp>dir vss*
Volume in drive C is D370_C
Volume Serial Number is C89E-70E8

Directory of C:\Windows\Temp

05/24/2012 08:51 PM 308 vss-setvar.cmd
05/24/2012 09:24 PM 308 vss-setvar553.bat
05/24/2012 08:50 PM 518 vss.bat
05/24/2012 09:23 PM 529 vss553.bat
05/24/2012 08:50 PM 290 vss_start.bat
05/24/2012 09:23 PM 296 vss_start553.bat

That works but will end up leaving more and more vss* files there over time. You need to figure out why you were not replacing the vss files before then go back to just the single instance of each.

Were you deleting them before writing new ones previously or just trying to write over them?

« on: May 24, 2012, 05:54:18 pm »

BINGO!!!!! I deleted the vss* files in C:\Windows\temp and the manual backup worked correctly, so it looks like you are right and they are not being over written for some reason and are probably the ones created when by the scheduled backup at boot time.

Hmmm, just ran it again 3 minutes later and it ran okay again. Seems to only not work after the scheduled backup has occurred, which I think it setup to run under SYSTEM, not my login account.

I'll reboot in a little while then try the manual backup without deleting the vss* files in C:\Windows and see what happens.

These are the logs from a good scheduled run at boot time. The vss* files in C:\Windows\temp were all dated today when the computer was booted.

What will deleting shadows do to me? I have other software that uses Shadow Copy, especially Acronis True Image and I don't want to mess with it. (Can you tell I'm not up to speed on Shadow Copy

)

Also, I use Shadow Explore to browse Shadow Copies to sometimes recover files that Windows has backed up. What kind of an effect does it have on that?

I just did a vssadmin list shadows and this is the response:

Keywords:      Classic
User:          N/A
Computer:      Dell-P370
Description:
Windows cannot access the file  for one of the following reasons: there is a problem with the network connection, the disk that the file is stored on, or the storage drivers installed on this computer; or the disk is missing. Windows closed the program SeaMonkey because of this error.

Program: SeaMonkey
File: 

The error value is listed in the Additional Data section.
User Action
1. Open the file again. This situation might be a temporary problem that corrects itself when the program runs again.
2. If the file still cannot be accessed and
	- It is on the network, your network administrator should verify that there is not a problem with the network and that the server can be contacted.
	- It is on a removable disk, for example, a floppy disk or CD-ROM, verify that the disk is fully inserted into the computer.
3. Check and repair the file system by running CHKDSK. To run CHKDSK, click Start, click Run, type CMD, and then click OK. At the command prompt, type CHKDSK /F, and then press ENTER.
4. If the problem persists, restore the file from a backup copy.
5. Determine whether other files on the same disk can be opened. If not, the disk might be damaged. If it is a hard disk, contact your administrator or computer hardware vendor for further assistance.

Rebooted and the scheduled backup under System worked okay. Tried to run it manually and it fails every time. When it fails it is not closing

vss_7_64.exe, vss_pause.exe and vss_start.exe

Here are the logs from the last failed run:

Installed 0.9.5. It failed same as before when I tried to run it under my account. It also then failed under System.

I looked at TaskManager and it looks like you are not closing the VSS tasks when an error occurs so subsequent runs won't work until you exit the program then start it again. Not sure if this is intentional or not.

I tried looking at B:\Windows as you mentioned since vss_pause.exe was running, but it doesn't exist.

Just tried using System from a fresh start of the program but it fails the same as before. This is hte error in Log_Backup.txt:

One other suggestion. Change the name of the download files to include the version, like

tweaking.com_registry_backup_setup.exe ==> tweaking.com_registry_backup_setup_0.9.5.exe

Makes it easier to keep track of what I have.

I'd also like to follow-up on the question Tomas_Sweden raised (though I can't find it now, odd). How do I restore the registry if I can't boot in normal or Safe mode? With ERUNT, I can boot the Recovery Console and run the ERDNT.EXE I want from there. This doesn't seem possible with Registry Backup.

I'll try installing 0.9.5 over 0.9.4 and see what happens.

At the end of Log_VSS.txt, I see this.

C:\>
[10:33:39 AM] Closed. No longer reading pipes.
[10:33:39 AM] Error: 402 - Not processing a command to cancel.
[10:33:39 AM] Error: 402 - Not processing a command to cancel.

Don't know if the 402 error is a problem or not.

I would like to see the Log.VSS.txt file also written to the backup directory instead of the program directory.

Uninstalled, deleted D:\Registry Backup, rebooted, reinstall 0.9.4.

It now works when I run it manually from the GUI so there must have been some left over stuff in the install directory or backup directory that was causing the problem.

Deleted and created a new task to run under my account and it failed. This is the Task Scheduler history:

Thanks Shane. I like the idea of keeping the log files with the snapshot.

Edit: I just checked and nothing under D:\Registry Backup\DELL-P370\5.20.2012_1.55.04-PM\C was created, neither under Users or Windows. The folder structure is there but no data.

Edit #2: I ran the above under my account. Just tried it under System and get the same failure.

Yes, I also have UAC turned off.

This is going to be a large post sorry, but I will include the Log_VSS.txt and Log_Backup.txt files. The Log_VSS.txt concerns me. I hope it is not doing what it says it's doing and actually deleting all shadow copies in the system. ShadowExplorer shows my shadow copy data is still there so this must mean only the Registry Backup data, right?????

Here are the log files. Note that 11:44PM is when I shut down last night so that's when everything magically appeared. All the files must have still been open so were not visible. Might want to explicitly close them when the backup is done.

One change I would strongly suggest is to time stamp each log entry so you know how long it's taking to do things.

I'll try 0.9.3 and run under my account, see what happens.

Scheduled backup not working correctly or at least not ending. I rebooted at 10:58, here is the Task log:

It has not completed as far as I can tell and it's not 11:15PM.. No new backup in D:\Registry Backups and nothing in Log_Backup.txt to show it';s even started.

Works correctly if I start it from the Task Scheduler under my own account but doesn't seem to run right when run under SYSTEM.

It looks like the scheduled backup completed but the task itself never terminated and was stopped when it reached it's max run time which I set to 30 minutes.

I just ran it again by starting it from the Task Scheduler and it ran and completed quickly.

I'll try it again from a boot and see what happens.
