Hi

Is it possible to restore a TI 11 backup to a different partition?

A friend has used it for the first time and he says he can only restore his
backup to the original (source) partition.

Is that correct?

If so its a big limitation for some purposes.

Thanks for any info.

Ian

Corse it is.

Nope.

Yeah, and he is just plain wrong. Not too clear why he's having a massive brain fart.

You can. It asks you what drive you want to restore it to, just like
the previous versions.

Hi Guys

Thanks for confirming this.

I suspect there are no other partitions available that have sufficient
space, which would explain why he is only be offered the original (source)
partition to restore to.

Cheers

Yeah, thats the most likely reason for his brain fart.
