| | Restoring a backup Prior to reinstalling my Vista due to some troubles I made a backup on my F: drive. Having now reinstalled Vista I try and 'Restore'. From Windows Backup I get "There was an unexpected error: Backup has not been set up on this computer. An administrator must first create a backup before you can restore files (0x810000EE) Backup will now close. However if I look on my F drive I see my backup set and date made. I would appreciate it if you can direct me to the answer. |

| | Re: Restoring a backup I can tell you what I see on my tested backup, but it would be a guess what you are seeing. Sorry. I rightclick my backup folder, named for my machine (in my case 'M'), the rightclick menu on the 'backup set' folder has Properties, then Security tab, As I highlight each user, 'Creator Owner ' has no rights, but "Admin" and mine have 'read/execute' and read' etc, and "System" has all, (Full Control, etc) I would guess this is somehow lacking on your system. -- Was this helpful?

| | Re: Restoring a backup Thanks Mark. I have been able to follow the route you said and all my settings seem to be the same as yours but still I'm unable to 'Restore' in the normal fashion.

| | Re: Restoring a backup Hi: Have you been able to restore your files from backup. I backed up to disk before sending my laptop off to be repaired and when trying to do the backup I get the same message you received. "Backup has not been setup on this computer. An administrator must first create a backup before you can restore files. (0x810000EE)." I am the administrator. "Hummingbirdman2003" wrote: Quote: > Thanks Mark.
