The biggest and most surprising to me is that encrypted files don’t get backed up. And there is no warning of this. So if you encrypt a folder the files just get skipped. This is NOT GOOD. As people will think files are getting backed up when they are not.

With the new “ZIP” type format MS is using although nice is some ways, doesn’t seem like it could keep the EFS files encrypted, which is why they probably skip them. This is a huge flaw! I think vista needs the old ntbackup put back in for power users.

Another thing is you can’t specify the paths you want to backup anymore, you just get these vague file types, our company partitions all our drive to C and D and all user data is on D. There doesn’t seem to be away to point the
new backups at the drives and paths we want. What I would like to see is the NTbackup put back in, for those who know how to use it and already use it in XP. The new system is nice for the very dumb, but not for the power user. And the EFS thing needs to be addressed.
