8d7858ef-108f-46d5-a248-0644253e006c Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 I have the emc retrospect hd express, and have been backing up the whole computer for months on the imogea prestrige F drive. My primary C drive failed, and I replaced it, and reinstalled my programs. Now I want to restore the saved files from the C drive, but when I choose a date and proceed to the next step , I get the restore to original location on local disk F drive , or The following location: Desktop\MyDocuments\My Restored Files\Restore 2. I have the manual twice and am still confused. Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 The program should allow you to select any folder on any desk as the destination. Do not select "restore to original location". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not select "restore to original location". Just given the two options that I wrote in my original post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
