Hi Steven
Thanks for your suggestion ;-)
I see a difference ;-))

Since my OS2.KEY has undergone a massive extension with some more
entries =

I never had the problem of an incomplete archive restore from the WPS
owned =

feature !

Following your answer I will have to look better into UniMaint's DT
Backup and =

Restore !!

BTW: At this time I would like to remind:
On Jan 9th, 2004 I have asked and written about my problems with
ARCinst on =

my notebook with MCP 4.52 !!!

I am doing a very regular archive of my WPS and once in a month,
normally =

after the montly system backup, I do an ARCinst followed by one or two
normal =

archive run(s).

All these years I never had problems running ARCinst and getting a
renewed =

0X generation with an emptied 1 to 3 generation display.
After running one or a second WPS archive all archive generations were =

displayed again.

Now on this notebook the displaying date does not change anymore
however =

how many ARCinst I am doing ;-(((

Where do I need to change or switch to get it working properly ?
Thanks in advance for assistnace and guidance !

Regards, svobi

If you have never had an archive restore fail, you are not missing
anything other than a bit of wasted time. Unimaint's backup runs faster
and runs with the the system up and running. I have seen too many
systems
where the builtin Desktop resore fails to restore correctly. Depending
on
the individual situation, the result is either a full restore, a
non-destructive makeini, a destructive makeini or a full reinstall. =

None
of these are things that would rate high on the scale of things I enjoy.

Regards, Steven
