Jason, I have a similar problem and received this reply from Nero, which might be od assistance to you. Good Luck!
If you face problems during the restore of a file backup created with Nero BackItUp, you can try to restore the backup using the command line.
To open the command line window, please go to the Start Menu -> Run, enter "CMD" and confirm
Then type in the following lines. Click "Return" after each line
C:
cd "\program files\Nero\Nero 7\Nero Backitup"
Then start BackItUp with the following parameters:
Backitup.exe /NEW:Restore /PATHLIST:"your_folder_1;your_folder_2; ...;"
BackItUp will open the usual interface and you should be able to click on the folder structure in the window on the left side. Select the folders to be restored.
Now click on "Start Restore" and continue.
If you should find yourself back on the original path after an error message during the restore process, choose a different path instead of the original one.
Now the files should start to restore.
Please note:
Use of upper or lower case is unimportant here. But it is important to adhere to the spaces.
Each folder name has to be closed with a semicolon. The quotation marks around the folder list need to be always set.
Under Pathlist, enter the drive letter and the folder in which the backup is located.
Example: The complete backup is located in folder "My Backup" on the uppermost level of a DVD, which is located in drive "E:". In that case, enter "E:\My Backup;" as a folder name.
It is sufficient to simply enter the first letter or first number of the folder and to replace the remaining characters with "*".
Example: /PATHLIST:"E:\2*;"
This specification will find all folders that begin with "2", e.g. 20050508_xxxxx, 20050509_xxxxx, 20050510_xxxxx
It is not possible to specify only a single drive letter.
Example: /PATHLIST:"E:\;" wouldn't find anything
Should you have any other request, please don't hesitate to contact us again.
