backup file

Thread needs solution

When you have a back up file, can you get only one part of it back or just look at it??? The .ext name is not a common file to open. What I mean is. If I loose a document I created. Can I get into the back up of the C drive and pull that file out by it self and restore it. Or do I have to restore the full drive???

To restore specific data from a backup image (.tib archive), you have various options:

- You can boot from the ATI bootable Rescue Media and choose a files/folders restore, selecting the files and folders you wish to restore.

- If ATI is installed, you could mount the backup and copy files/folders from it to the drive.

- If ATI is installed, you could double-click the backup to open it in Windows Explorer, then copy files/folders from it to the drive.

- Within ATI, right-click on the backup you wish to restore from and select "Recover Files".

That gives you four methods, so at least one should suit you. :)
