Quick Restore

Previous  Top  Next

Quick restore is the fastest way to restore a specific file or group of files.

If you use the Restore or View function to display a file then select one or more files to restore, this method can be time consuming with huge backup files. Use the Quick restore to quickly restore a file or group of files.

All available backup files are listed in the combobox list.

If backup files are not available a browse button will be displayed on the bottom line.

If the destination edit zone is left blank, files will be restored to the original location, otherwise click the small folder button to browse your computer. If you restore files to a specific folder you can ask for a flat restore.

Add the files to restore. You can use skeletons, like *.doc or *.xls. All doc or xls files included in the backup file will be restored. You can use a full file name like c:\myfolder\myfile.doc (as myfile.doc is stored in the archive file).
Use a line per file or skeleton.

Or all files in a specific folder like c:\myfolder\*

If Files or folders is left blank, all files will be restored.

If Destination is different from the original you can choose to process a Flat restore or Ignore path root.
Here is an example of what you get when you redirect the extraction to another place :
if an archive file has two files :
c:\myfolder\file1.doc
c:\myfolder\mysubfolder\file2.xls
if you choose as destination C:\restorefolder

1.	Flat restore and Ignore path root are unchecked you will get

C:\restorefolder\myfolder\file1.doc

C:\restorefolder\myfolder\mysubfolder\file2.xls

2. Flat restore checked you will get

C:\restorefolder\file1.doc

C:\restorefolder\file2.xls

3. Ignore path root checked you will get

C:\restorefolder\file1.doc

C:\restorefolder\mysubfolder\file2.xls

Check the Ignore NT attributes if you are restoring data on another computer.

Click the Ok button to start the restore process.
