System files that can't be deletedgreenspun.com : LUSENET : Anders Petersson's Freeware Forum : One Thread |
I wanna mirror a directory from a local drive to my mp3 player drive(which also works like a local drive). Windows xp likes to place a file "System Volume Information" in the root directory of each drive. so when I run NHB, it tries to delete this file(cause it's not in source) and can't(cause its being used by windows) and locks up. If you could also include in the "backup file pattern" certain files to not check. that would work good. Good work btw ).

I agree that it would be a good function. As I'm sure you know, you can uncheck the "delete redundant files" option. Then NHB won't delete ANY files in the destination folder.

yeah, but the delete redundent files is very nice :). I created a directory off root to mirror to. just have to browze 1 directory deeper on my mp3 player. Not perfect, but doable ).
