Re: Repeat backups of the same WinXP system files every day

Well, that wasn't quite true.  In earlier clients you could change the
domain statement to

domain C:

for instance and that would exclude the system object.

These files are part of the system object (the system files) that are backed
up EVERY TIME.

With the 5.1.5 client you can exclude the system object - before that you
could not do anything.

I suppose this question has been asked before, but I haven't seen an answer
for it....

I recently upgraded my Laptop to Windows XP, and now I find that it backs up
the same 3,000 files or so everyday.  These files are primarily things like
DLLs that reside in the Windows and Windows/System32 directories.  When I
check on the files, they do not have a current date - probably the build
date of 8/23/01.

What is the secret to keeping these files from being backed up everyday -
short of putting them in an exclude list.  At this stage I am assuming this
to be a software bug...

By the way, I am running the XP version of the code - IP22519 downloaded
only a couple of weeks ago.
