Restored "My Documents" files have changed filename
I have restored the contents of the "My Documents" folder from an XP TrueImage 2010 backup into the Documents library in my new Windows 7 installation.
Unfortunately all the filenames have been changed and they have unusable extensions because the extensions all have the tilde character (~) followed by 8 alphanumeric characters.
eg letter.doc has become letter.doc~EONB7V5D and sheet.xls has become sheet.xls~ULDVNJ4H.
This makes the documents unusable as they stand. I can fix the problem using a batch filename editor but I am puzzled what is going on here. Is this a feature of Trueimage that I don't understand or has something gone wrong in the restore process?
Interestingly, it hasnt happened in all folders - my itunes collection all have the correct extension.
