mrmcc209 Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 I started using the program for a back up to make sure I did not lose any files. Right after I get the external HD my computer is stolen. I know have a new laptop and want to start to restore files. I started with my music files and when it says the restore is done I see no files. The size of the folder is right for all that I backed up but there are no files showing. What did I do wrong and how do I get the files to show up. I can not find a topic on this anywhere.

zhaoding Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 Strange. Do you mean after the restoration, the restored folder has the right size when viewing from the Windows Explorer? If so, there should be some files in it, right? But it is shown empty. What is in it? Are those files are hidden or system protected? You can go to the folder options setting to let the explorer show all hidden and system protected files to check again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmcc209 Posted April 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 wait I do not see where you would click the option to show hidden files. But you are correct there are not files visible yet the folder size is 20 Gigs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
