Cannot see ATI 2018 backup files copied to USB drive on aother PCs
I think Acronis need to do a better job with their AAP. I get the concept but it has a lot of issues. If you get pass the issue of ATI not allowing a simple copy of the tib file to another drive, the next issue is seeing the file ton another PC. Let me explain. I made a copy of PC-A. For safty, after turning off AAP, I copied the tib file to a USB drive so I can put the file on a PC-B which is where I keep a copy of all backups. I plug the USB drive into PC-B but I do not see the tib file. I move the USB drive back to PC-A and the file is there. I've set the viewing properties of File Explorer to show all hidden and system files. Still PC-B does not show the 2018 tib file on the USB drive. I see other ATI files (2014 - 2017).
What's up with this Acronis?
On further trouble shooting on my part, I rebooted PC-B, and The file showed up in file explorer.
Next I tried to copy the file from the USB drive that was attached to PC-B to a Windows Domain drive (I'm the Domain Admin) and once again I did not have permission. So I tried copying it a Google File Stream mapped-drive and it worked. Again I ask what's up with this.?
