cyber protect disapointment
After so many years of Acronis experience, 1 corrupted file brought the backup system to its knees.
It did show a strange message saying that the backup was stopped by the user and advising to run CHKDSK.
And started a loop of backing up and backup stopped by the user.
Not saying if it was the source or the destination drive, anyway chkdsk /F and chkdsk /scan didn't find anything.
apparently chkdsk only looks for bad sectors.
After hours of chkdsk, memory checks, I decided to simply copy the files to the backup drive with Total Commander.
Then TC found a corrupted file that I deleted and the copy went through till the end.
After the corrupted file was deleted I did a normal backup, it completed an validated.
Well it is very disapointing that cyber protect or true image are not smart enough to show that a file is corrupted instead of freaking out and sending wrong messages.
