System Image Recovery can only find one image. But there are others.
Hi,
On my Acer laptop there are two system images contained in D:\WindowsImageBackup\%ComputerName% (Win10 resides in C: ). Their folder names are:
(A) Bachup 2018-02-18 034639
(B) Backup 2018-03-28 105044
I wanted to do a System Image Recovery, using the earlier image A. But the Recover Wizard can only found the later image B after I clicked on the "Select a system image" radio button.
I tried renaming the folder B, but no luck.
But I noticed something. I copied the whole WindowsImageBackup folder to the root directory of an external USB HDD and deleted the image B sub-folder under this newly copied WindowsImageBackup folder. Then I did System Image Recovery again. This time the Recovery Wizard still lists, under the "Most recent system image" column, image B on the external HDD, along with the image B on the local computer.
That led me to think that maybe the Recovery Wizard determines the available system images by consulting some records in some files, i.e., not by enumerating the available image folders. But that's only a guess.
Anyway, is it possible for the earlier system image A to be available?
Thank you.
