Dowfen 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2003 Apparently over the weekend, Windows updated automatically updated the Windows 2000 Server that Retrospect 6.5 Multi-Server was running on. As a result, Retrospect lost it's activation key (I had to reenter it), all its scripts, and clients. I'm rebuilding all the backup sets as I write this, but what's the cause of this? Also, where does Retrospect store its script files so in the future I might be able to just back them up. Otherwise, there's nothing on the server I want/need.

natew 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2003 Hi There are 2 files that contain all of the information you mentioned: c:\documents and settings\all users\application data(hidden)\Retrospect\config65.dat and config65.bak Nate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dowfen 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2003 First of all, thanks for the reply. How would I go about getting Retrospect to start using these files again? Thanks, Eric Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
natew 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 Hi If the files are valid Retrospect should use them by default. Were you logged in as administrator when you originally installed Retrospect? I wonder if the Windows updates made the Retrospect preferences directory "off limits" or something. I would do a full uninstall of Retrospect and reboot the machine. I would also save the 2 config files somewhere and delete the entire Retrospect folder after the uninstall. Once you reinstall Retrospect you can move them back in.
