Can't access .tib files...
I'm using TI 11 Home. Today after close to two years of solid use my SSD raid array died. Was in Windows, it blue-screened, and upon boot the array was gone. So I rebuilt the array, ran some diagnostics and then reinstalled Windows 7.
After that I installed TI 11, and no matter what .tib file I point at I get --
An error occurred when opening the backup archive
Cannot continue the operation due to either the backup is corrupt or it is used by another process...
I've tried from within TI, and within Explorer. Last backup to some that were a year old.
Please help, thanks.

Cobalt,
Try to do your restore from the recovery CD.

Thanks to you both for your replies, I'm still not having much luck.
The tibs are on external drives. They were made before the SSD array died.
I checked with 'unlocker', it shows no lock on the archive files.
Usually when I made a backup I'd either have the validation option checked, or I'd open the archive file after the backup is complete and browse it to be sure it was readable. I can see how a single archive could be corrupted, but not every archive that I have (more than a dozen.)
I tried from the CD as well (on a different PC using a copied archive file as the system in question has no optical drive,) it gives the same error.
It seems the only system (OS install and TI install) that can actually read any of the archives was the one under which they were created, and which no longer exists. And that is really difficult to believe given the nature of the application.

When you say you are using TI11, are you talking about TI 2011, or TI v11 (which precedes TI 2009)

You know, that's a very good question!
I have TI 2009 that I purchased as an upgrade two years ago (thus no CD.) When the system crashed I went for the media drawer and found the TI CD... For the original copy I had purchased, which was v11. So I was trying to use the v11 CD and re-installation on archives created with TI 2009. Lesson learned, thanks again for the help.

If you have 2009, you can register your serial number in your Acronis.com account and dowload the latest bootable ISO. YOu can then burn this image *as an ISO* (not as a regular file) on a blank CD to create the latest booable medium for your version and recover your backups.

If you use an older version TI to restore a backup created by a newer version, the restore will fail with an error very similar to what you show in your first posting. Your restore CD must be the same version or a newer version in order for the restore to succeed.
