How to delete listing for non-existent backup
[cross posted performance-maintenance and general NG's]

Now, when I open Backup Status and Configuration and select Complete PC Backup, that backup is still listed even though it's not the Last backup was successful Last successful backup 4/28/2007 Last backup location Data Backup (x) I would like to be able to clear that entry. -- ______________________________ Walter B waltblanch[at]tampabay[dot]rr[dot]com ______________________________

How to delete listing for non-existent backup
No joy. I also searched for "Last successful backup" -- nothing.
Hopefully, someone from MS will weigh in on this. -- ______________________________ Walter B waltblanch[at]tampabay[dot]rr[dot]com ______________________________ "James Matthews" wrote in message ...

How to delete listing for non-existent backup
I have the answer for you. This took me a LONG time to figure out, after much mucking around with deleting hidden files, playing with SysInternals Process Explorer, ProcMon, RegMon, etc. And deleting several files in the hidden "System Volume Information" folder, and tinkering with VssAdmin.exe and WBadmin.exe commands, it boils down to this... 1. open regedit 2. navigate to : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ WindowsBackup 3. delete the key (make a backup first if you are worried!!) Now try opening the control panel (or run sdclt.exe) and you should see that it has been reset.  -- LuckMan212
