Command line

Previous  Top  Next

Backup2005 Pro can be used through a command line to open an archive file.
This is done to allow opening archive files through the Open with menu from the Windows Explorer.

Parameters : /b progress window is not visible

/bv progress window is visible

/m run multiple backup sets, progress windows is not visible

/mv run multiple backup sets, progress windows is visible.

The second parameter is the name of the backup set or the name of the rlu file stored in the Tasks subfolder. Rlu files are created when you select multiple backup sets in the scheduler wizard.

Each parameter must be surrounded by a double quote.

Example : azg "/b" "mybackupset"

The command line can be useful if you use a non standard scheduler. The working directory must be the Backup2005 Pro installation folder.
