Good Morning All,
I have been using MS Backup that is standard in MS XP PRO.
On my laptop I have ~146k files/ directories etc., using ~50gig.
About last month, I ran the backup. The Selection Information evaluation ran for a VERY long time, the file count was over 2 million files. From what I could gather the file path that was showing in the evaluation dialog is c:\..\protect\S-1-5-19\GUIDs. It did not seem to get out of this directory path. After the first 60k files and 10 gig’s or so.
When I search for these sub-directories,’s-1-5-19′ and ‘protect’ are not found. Has anyone seen this before?
When I look at some of the files, on my drive there appears to be some kind of hidden security tag associated with the file that flashes up and then immediately disappears, I can see it if I do a print screen immediately after I press properties and then look at the security tab on the files properties, and then pasting it into a Word doc.
I did a file dump into a text file and scanned for the ‘Protect’ and ‘S-1-5-19’ directories, but they did not exist. Has anybody seen this before, and how can I fix it?
Regards,
Paul
