s017backup's Issues
The following folders are never to be copied as they are either auto-created by Windows or accounts to be logged into:
- Dropbox*
- Links
- Google Drive*
- OneDrive*
-Saved Games
- Searches
-Tracing
Folders with * are only found on units where the account is logged in OR the software installed
-Searches
-Links
-Roaming
-Saved Games
-OneDrive
Have an option where we can add extra folders (via full path) to a backup
Migration should then maybe look in the designated "extra folders" directory that is made and move them over automatically during migration too
Verify if it's possible to confirm the backup size after it's done.
Robocopy does a decent job already, but we should check anyway
Vista and newer work 100%
Vista had junctions to map the old "My Documents" folder
rsync - dissapearing files (error code 24) can be ignored as it's caused by trying to move temp files
loglevel 4 - shows more information on warnings
info found on backupcentral.com
Looking into appending the current date and time in a format that's compatible with folder naming coonventions.
This way if customer returns again, we wouldn't overwrite our existing backup if one exists
Need to run tests to see if robocopy log will append an existing log, or whether it erases it
Would allow migration in situation where maybe migrating back into Users folder isn't appropriate.
