Hi Tommi,

 MP>> backup of the OS/2 system on a specified interval without having to

 HG> Is this really possible?

TK> Yes. Please read previous posts by Torsten and me.

I have done it and even saved them.

 HG> I know that you can't backup a running system

TK> Well, DFSee can backup a running system. I've made disk images from

DFSee has long been a dream to me but I have not acquired it.
My favourite file manager has always been the derivatives of XTRee that
was included with my first PC, an Epson 286 AX.

I have it for OS/2 and Windows too.
Regarding the Windows version: Don't install it on the partition that
Windows starts from. It takes an age to start up due to the amount of
files that Windows installs.

Now I have it installed on the partition where I store my own programs.


Hyv„„ iltaa,
