Backup drive looks empty

Thread needs solution

Hi, I am triing to recover from a crash, I made backups to my usb drive.
If I go into my drive I see my backup folder but there are no files inside.
If I right mouse click it says that the size is 300gb so there must be some files inside.
How can I make them that I can see the and select them.

Rgds, Henk

You might try a right click on the backup folder and choose Properties, check to make sure attributes are not set to hidden.

Hi,
thanks for your reply,
tried that and didnt give me nothing, Somehow imanaged to see that directory in Acronis and there where 2 dir. inside. I changed
the properties and now I see 1 acronis Icon with a lot of data files. when i double clic the acronis file it tells me that the data is curupt or in use by an other program. Do you have any idea on this. Hopefully it will work otherwise I loose 4 moths of work, My computer crashed today so this is my only last hope.

rgds.

The next step would be to validate the tib backup file.

Hi I ccopied the files to my local HD, i keeps saying files corrupted, tried to validate bu right clicking but it says its eighter currupted or i protected, and it says something about that all files has to be in same directory the first and the last file.

see attatched file.

regds, Henk
