No, tree does not show everything. It just shows names.

You don't need to open the Unimaint folder. You need to read the manual
and understand how restores work. Just in case you can't figure out how
to view unimaint.hlp without opening up the unimaint folder, to restore
from a backup:

- boot to the command line
you can't restore with the WPS active
- cd to the directory where you stored the backups
mine are in a subdirectory of the unimaint home dir to limit clutter
- type sysrestr and press the enter key

This will default to restoring from the most recent backup (i.e. 00). To
restore a different generation, enter the generation number:

sysrestr 02

Higher numbers are older.

Sure, if it strkes a chord with you.
