How to validate an archive when using a boot USB?

Thread needs solution

Hi
I booted my pc from an ATI2014 flash drive and created an archive tib file of the C drive, on a USB connected HDD.
All went well but when it was complete I wanted to validate the archive.

The manual for ATI says on page 93:
"Validating backups in a stand-alone version of True Image (bootable media)
1. On the Recovery tab, find the backup that contains the version that you want to validate. If the backup is not listed, click Browse for backup, and then specify the path to the backup. True Image adds this backup to the list.
2. Right-click the backup or a specific version, and then click Validate Archive. This opens the Validate Wizard.
3. Click Proceed."

BUT all this works until the "right click" part. Right clicking does nothing.
Mouse OK as right clicking I use often and it works on say file explorer.

Any help with how I can fix this problem greatly appreciated.

Thanks GroverH but...
It's step 3 the RIGHT click that does nothing (and right click works in other applications such as file explorer) therefore there is no validate archive option to select.

In step 3, try left clicking the selected tib file and then do the Right click.

Still no success after left clicking to select (this works) and then right clicking (this does nothing)

Dawn,
To confirm, are you saying you don't get a context menu when you right-clink on a .tib file you have browsed to after selecting the recovery tab and an image file?

Yes I am.
If the .tib file is already selected then pressing the right mouse button does nothing at all, no context menu, nothing.
If the .tib file is not selected however then pressing the right button will select it but further presses do nothing.
So clearly the right button is working, and this can be verifies by it working in other applications.
