KNOWN ISSUES WITH SAFE & SOUND:
1. Retake Protected Backup Volume Appears as a drive to some
programs
Retake's ability to appear as a hard drive to programs is a
feature. This feature allows you to access files in the
backup using Windows Explorer or from a DOS box as if it
is a regular drive. You may get an error from a program
if the program tries to access this virtual drive. You can
safely ignore the error. You may be able to prevent your
program from accessing Retake's volume drives using its
properties or options screen. Please refer to the program's
documentation on how to do this.
2. Retake Protected Backup Volumes cannot be accessed by 16-bit
shell applications
This version of Safe & Sound Retake does not support 16-bit
shell applications, such as File Manager, to view files in
the Backup Volume.
3. Backup sizes may be reported incorrectly.
This is due to a problem with Windows reporting the cluster
size as 32k all the time. FAT32 drives uses only 4K cluster
size. Therefore, the size of the backup drives in this
instance will be over estimated.
4. Each Protected Backup Volumes are limited to 4 Gigabytes
in size.

Last Minute Documentation Changes
Page 18 - "...It lets you decide which types of files to backup,
how often to save them, and where you want the backup
set located..."
should read "...It lets you decide which types of files to backup
and where you want the backup set located..."
Page 24 - "Write-behind Delay" should read "Backup Delay"

Undocumented Features
DOSLFN.EXE - This is a TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident) program
that provides long filename API support under DOS. This allows
programs such as DOS' COPY command to recognize long filenames
outside of Windows 95/98. This file is copied into the Rescue
Disk.

Known Issue with Personal Trainer
Q: When I try to install the Personal Trainer for Windows 95
I get an "Error 76 ..." message and have to quit.
A: The "Error 76" problem you encountered is most likely due
to not having a folder called "Recycled" on the C drive.
Follow these steps:
1) Click Start, Programs, and select Windows Explorer
2) Scroll up to the top of the left panel of the screen and
click once on the C: icon.
3) From the main menu click File, New, Folder and then type
the word "Recycled" and press ENTER.
