Be sure to read their disclaimer for v6 - you cannot recover any files
backed-up with earlier versions. I'm running v6 and so far I haven't noticed any problems. Bob S. "Crusty (-: Old B@stard :-)" wrote in message ... There is a new version (ver 6.0) out along with a free update for those who are using versions 4.5 and above! -- Regards, Richard Urban |

[stomp software's "Backup My PC" release 6] Be sure to read their disclaimer for v6 - you cannot recover any files backed-up with earlier versions. So why would we want that. A backup program that won't read files written by an earlier version of itself seems pretty useless unless the idea is to _have_ backups without _using_ them. -- Stan Brown, Oak Road Systems, Tompkins County, New York, USA http://OakRoadSystems.com/ |

Backup MyPC - of interest
F.Y.I.
Just as a test, I popped in a 5.x backup tape, did a "Media Device" view, it READ the tape, popped up the tapes catalog & let me RESTORE several folders/files... So even though it tells you that it won't restore previous versions, it it worked for at least a 5.x version. Maybe someone has a 4.x backup they could try to read/restore from??? Ray...

FYI, I just sent the following to StompSoft Support with the Subject: "My bizarre experience with your Download Update for Backup MyPC v6.0":
"I was previously running Backup MyPC v5.0. Last night I downloaded your "Download Update" for Backup MyPC v6.0 from your web page at http://www.stompsoft.com/downloads.html?SourceID=BPUS6. "However, when I attempted to install your v6.0 update, I kept getting error messages stating that this update could not find any valid version of Backup MyPC installed on my computer. So I completely uninstalled and reinstalled Backup MyPC v5.0 on my computer with no problems. However, when I again attempted to upgrade my reinstalled Backup MyPC v5.0 to Backup MyPC v6.0, I still got the same error message that Backup MyPC v6.0 could not find any valid version of Backup MyPC installed on my computer. "Then as an afterthought, I realized that I had an obsolete installation file for Backup MyPC v4.85. So I uninstalled Backup MyPC v5.0, which I have been running for well over a year, and installed this old obsolete Backup MyPC v4.85. Then when I attempted to upgrade this obsolete Backup MyPC v4.85 to Backup MyPC v6.0, to my great surprise this update/upgrade actually worked. I find this experience incredibly bizarre. "Have I uncovered a bug, or is this part of your systems design that no ordinary mortal like me could ever comprehend? If this is in the latter category, was this designed by the same person or group that developed this new version 6.0 of Backup MyPC, which 'cannot be used to restore backup sets created with versions of Backup MyPC prior to version 6.0'"???

I had the same experience and Stomp e-mailed me and set up a code to
let me download a non-upgrade version of v.6. The problem with v6 is that it cannot read backups created with a previous version and it cannot coexist with a previous version on the same system (i.e. the installer uninstalls the previous version) so I have chosen not to use it.
