I have 3 full backups and 17 incremental backups, all created by a single backup task. Today I was in need of a restore and found that maybe one (or perhaps two) files are probably not the way TI2013 expects them to be.
The problem however is that when I start a Validate on the task it just returns 'Damaged' to me. Is there any other possibilty to tell TI2013 which backups it should use and reconstruct all the header info?

I spent many hours and days before to understand some of the behaviour of TI2013, even experimented with deleting a TIB file from a series of backups to see what happens. I was very worried to see that the restore then no longer works, even for the files that were still OK. And placing bck that deleted TIB file would not help either!!

So, is there a repair utility to tell TI2013 that the current TIB files should be used and are all OK?

To make the problem a bit easier I removed most of the files (first by using TI2013 interface, some files could not be removed that way and were deleted manually). I ended up with three simple full backups:

Outlook_full_b2_s1_v1.tib
Outlook_full_b10_s1_v1.tib
Outlook_full_b11_s1_v1.tib

I had big problems to get TI2013 so far that it would start a Validate, but in the end it worked. However, TI2013 reports only 2 (!) full backup versions, but there are 3 backups in that folder. Also the TI2013 Calender which appears after requesting a restore only shows two backups. The last backup is not displayed.

Is there a way to tell TI2013 that it should also read and use the third backup file (b11)?
