User deleted a folder on users home directory in Novel Netware 5.1 server. backupexec successfully restored the folder but its empty. I'm certain there were files and subfolders in the restored folder. How do I help my user.

In the BU Exec restore process, be sure to set the restore to restore over existing files.

Alternatively, re-direct the restore to another path, then move the restored files to the original location.

Also, check the backup type that you're restoring from. If you're trying to restore files that weren't changed from a differential or incremental BU, then there's nothing there to put back.

Thanks. My BE is setup to restore over existing file. Tried alternative path to no avail. I suspect malacious s/w. Any tool you can recommend?
