My experience with "Do Aggressive File Handles Repair," while
maybe not as
bad as yours, strongly suggests that it is *way* too aggressive. =

(Maybe someone
should point that out to the developers ?) If this function was
more intelligent
in what it sought to do, and less of a blunt instrument, this
might not be a problem.

IIRC, some of the trouble you got into with UniMaint was due to
your having
reached a point where there was so much of a cleanup job for it
to do that the
program got overwhelmed. Did you ever get caught up on
correcting the accumulated
bad stuff ?

UniMaint's Desktop Backup function gets all the EAs, the INIs,
key files you may
designate, etc. I don't know if gets your associations too (my
guess is it does), but
even if not, there is probably some other way of doing this with
the program.
