Compare problem

Hi.

 

Using Retrospect 7.5 and WinXP SP3.

 

After I backing up some files, I get a compare error. If I copy the files and use this copy for backup, the compare works.

 

I have a PGP signature (same concept as MD5 checksum). Both files (the original and the copy) are byte by byte identical!

File "G:\DV\Tapes\file_7.avi": didn't compare

Completed: 4 files, 5,8 GB

Performance: 162,7 MB/minute (161,9 copy, 163,6 compare)

Duration: 01:13:56 (00:01:30 idle/loading/preparing)

As soon as I disable this feature, the compare works on the original file:

Why is all this?

 

Many thanks!
