I am attempting to prevent system restore from backing up anything with the
file extension .dtt. If I create a restore point when the system does not have any .dtt files and later use that restore point, any files with the .dtt extension are removed. Is there any way to stop system restore from backing up .dtt files? |

Hi,
No, it's not configurable to that degree. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "mike4321" wrote in message ...

Rick,
Thanks for the response. Do you know of any other possible method to prevent system restore from backing up .dtt files? I have created a restore point which had no .dtt files saved any where on the system, I then created several .dtt files, rebooted and restored to the restore point create earlier and the .dtt files that I create were gone. I have added numerous entries into the FilesNotToBackup registry key using both wilcards and full paths without any success. Is there any other method to exluding files within system restore?
