Microsoft Backup Seems to Display Incorrect Information (137111)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q137111 SYMPTOMS
When you click the Restore tab in Backup, click a drive or folder
containing a backup set file, and then double-click the backup set file,
the contents of the backup set file seem to be displayed inaccurately. In
particular, the size displayed initially is 0, and the modified date
displayed is not the date that the backup was made.
CAUSE
When you double-click a backup set file on the Restore tab, or click a
backup set file and then click Next Step, the contents of that backup set
file are displayed. The folder that is displayed initially in the pane on
the right side of the screen is the root folder of the drive from which the
backup was made. The information displayed to the right of this folder is
information about the folder itself, not about the backup. A size of 0
bytes is reported because Windows 95 always reports folders as 0 bytes in
size.
RESOLUTION
To see information about the actual files contained in the backup, double-
click the folders displayed in the pane on the right side of the screen
until the files in the folders are displayed.
