Backup Forum - Backup4all

So you are saying that Backup4All doesn't have anything to do with the padlocks?

Could you ask the developers if the program does any kind of file locking or ownership changes just before starting the restore operation?

No, I haven't seen this problem before. Also, I just tried to reproduce the problem but everything went fine. Could this be because of an aborted restore? On the first attempt to restore the files I forgot to deselect some directories and stopped the restore operation. I immediately run the restore ...

I don't see any difference.

Please understand that I restored only 4 files. However ALL (1000's of them) files, folders and subfolders on my Desktop have padlocks on them.

Hello. After restoring a couple of files, ALL the Desktop file and folder icons have padlocks on them. It seems that backup4all changed some file/folder attributes for the duration of restore but forgot to undo the change. Windows 7 BAckup4All Professional 4.6 How do I get rid of the padlocks? Thank...
