Backup and Restore Problem

Guest

I had been automatically backingup my windows vista files using the Backup
and Restore Center in windows Vista. I did a reinstall this morning and now
get the error "Windows was not able to find any backup sets on
\\DESKTOP\Laptop Backup\LAPTOP\Backup Set 2007-04-21 190852\. Please select
a different location." The files are there I can see the zip files and open
them up. Seems like there would have to be an easier way to restore these
than manually unzip each file. Someone please help.

Thanks,
Randy

At the ,moment I am postig from a XP computer - however "...\\DESKTOP\Laptop
Backup\LAPTOP\...." does not "read" as a legitimate location. Note
reference to a subfolder "\Laptop Backup|" in the "Desktop" folder.

Did you actually name those two folders as the designated location for the
backup? Are the Zip files at that location?

Yes, I named the location....the backup is on my home network, on a computer
called "desktop" in a folder I created on there called Laptop Backup.

Hope this answers your questions, yes the zip files are in this folder, and
subfolders.
