By the way, I used to use ERUNT (which I know you were inspired by, from what has been written) and it was a very fine and useful program. When it couldn't work anymore with later operating systems, I was rather disappointed. Thank goodness your program came out to take its place!

I'll be looking to make a DONATION. Good works should be rewarded.

Thank you for your reply!  I'll just have to experiment and explore the matter further (on both issues).

Tweaking.com Support & Help / REGISTRY BACKUP v.1.6.9 doesn't allow VOLUME SHADOW COPY to be implemented

It seems that REGISTRY BACKUP v.1.6.9 (compared to v.1.6.8) doesn't allow VOLUME SHADOW COPY to be implemented/turned on (even though it is enabled in Windows 8's Administrative Tools . . . both "Microsoft Software Shadow Volume Copier" and "Volume Shadow Copy" are checked and set to "Automatic" and "Running" before running REGISTRY BACKUP 1.69). This is with both the Installer version and the Portable version. Yet Version 1.68 works ok for this purpose.

So it "appears" that there "might" be a bug in the implementation or coding or Version 1.69 . . . unless this issue is not reported by anyone else & is just unique to me. I could be wrong but I am a high-level advanced computer techie/nerd/geek for over 30 years now. And it is the same result if I run Version 1.69 (versus Version 1.68) on my Sony Vaio laptop or on my MacBook Pro (both running Windows 8 Pro). For the time-being, I have reverted to using Version 1.68.

===============================================================

Another issue:  On my Sony laptop, doing a REGISTRY RESTORE worked fine to get me back to where I wanted it to be. Yet on my MacBook Pro (running Windows 8 Pro), I restored a backup from Nov. 2013 and it didn't appear to change (or hardly change) the system from what it was presently. For instance, new icons that I had put on the Windows TaskBar today (but definitely weren't there back in Nov. 2013) are still there after having done a restore, shutdown and rebooted. Why?
