tkeijzer Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Hi, I lost my entire Retrospect 8.0 configuration. Today when I started the console it came up asking for the license code. I reenterd it and I noticed that it forgot everything about my mail address, Backup scripts, backup sets etc. Is there any way to recover the previous configuration? I am on 8.0736.1) OSX 10.5.7 IMac 2.4 GHZ 3GB RAM Theo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 The settings are in the config80.dat file. You can try restoring that file from a backup. You also have a config80.bak file. You can try to rename it .dat and use that instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grmgroup Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 I had to reformat my HD. I installed my backup file (made a copy after last back up knowing I was reformatting). But now it take 20 minutes to do a backup even if I haven't edited one file. I back up to DVD on a dual G5, mac)S 10.4.11 running reto 6.1.126. I only back up my work folder which is a networked external drive. In the past, if I didn't do any work on a file, the backup would scan and quit in a few minutes. Now it takes 20 minutes just to scan the work folder whether I edit or create one file or 400. I currently have "all files but cache files". I never back up the HD itself or any other folder except my work folder. There are 3-5 years of legacy jobs. I also copy to an external HD once a month for safeskeeping. How do I speed up back up.
