True Image database being overwritten on image restore
The true image db appears to be stored in the Program Data folder in Windows 7 and not in any way attached to the image backup file which seems to be the case in the older version of true image I am still using on my XP pc.
What this means is that if I temporarily go back to an older image, any backup comments on newer images that still exist and which I may still want to go back to, are either blanked or overwritten with comments from other images which don't apply at all.
Before going back to a previous image, I always backup the current one so I'm thinking I should be able to do a restore to the True Image db in the Program Data folder but am afraid to try it in case it gets really screwed up.
Does anyone else have this problem and if so do you have a solution?
Thanks,
Gregg

when I restore, I cease to use the old tasks and start new tasks which enables me to keep and use the old backups should there be a need.
When you restore and try to allow the tasks to continue, the program gets confused, the user gets confused and it is difficult to ascertain what is happening.
Save some grief . Start over with new tasks, pointing to new sub-folders and keep your backups for archives.

Thanks for your replies. I was just hoping that someone would have a work around as true image 9.0 doesn't appear to use a db that gets overwritten on restore. This allows me to work on an image I want to implement some time in the future and also use my current production image without the descriptions of what's in each image being messed up. Sadly, true image 9.0 doesn't work on Windows 7 which I'm running on my new pc.
