View Z-DBackup Archives (List-View)


This window displays the contents of your backup. You can also open files from the backup and restore one or more files.
 


 

You can restore files to their original position or to another target location. You can flexibly restore files to different drives or directories.

The content of backup archives containing up to 200,000 files is displayed in a tree view. Backup archives containing more than 200,000 files are displayed as a list view (current help displayed) due to memory usage.

An alternative view can be select from the context menu (View-Mode). In this view the first column will contain the whole file path.

Select items to restore:
 

 



 Tick the checkboxes for the items you want to restore.

To tick multiple checkboxes at once, tick the checkbox of the first file you want to select, hold  CTRL  and tick the checkbox of the last file you want to select. All files inbetween will be selected as well.

 


The number of selected files and the needed drive space is shown in the status bar. You can also select files with the search feature.

Double click:

 

If a file is associated with an installed application (e.g. a Microsoft Wort file), it can be opened directly from the backup.

Right click:

 

Opens the context menu to view or restore a file.

Open selected item
 If a file is associated with an installed application (e.g. .doc is a Microsoft Word file), you can open the file with this program by clicking the View-button or by double-clicking it.

 Restore
 After you have selected one or more files to restore, you can restore them by clicking the restore button.

 Find file or directory in the backup
 Z-DBackup offers an easy feature to search for files in the backup. Found items are checked and can thus be restored easily.


 

You can use complete file names or parts of file names as search terms. Wildcards (*, ?) are supported. (e.g. *img*.jpg)
