[comp.os.msdos.misc] MS-DOS v3.20 BACKUP and RESTORE

streib@silver.ucs.indiana.edu (Allan Streib) (11/25/90)

I'm having trouble RESTORE-ing files I have BACKUP-ed to floppies.  I
was wondering in v3.20 BACKUP and RESTORE are known to be buggy.  The
message I get is:

WARNING!
No files found to restore.

I have used the commands successfully in sub-directories, but I can't 
get them to work in the root or first level directories.

I booted my system with a copy of IBM-DOS v3.30 to test that version's
commands, and they worked nicely.  (Although incompatable w/v3.20)

Please email.. I don't read this group often.  Thanks!
