Jack, I don't know what you are trying to do. If you want to see what media has been backed up in the media backup, you  can use Windows File Explorer which lets you look inside the zip file as it can treat it as a folder. Just don't forget that you are looking inside a zip and open things

John I assume that when you plug the external drive in Windoze opens up an explorer window? If it does then you can drag and drop copy the whole directory in one fell swoop. I have a script that I use for backing up all my 'beloved' data and flip flop between two external drives on a weekly

I have a back-up drive, and online backup, and I use Dropbox. There is also the Legacy online backup, but my security programs don't like it. I have placed my Legacy data & media files under my "genealogy" folder. This allows all my legacy data/media to get protected/backed up in case of loss.

If I understand your diagram MRIN 3319 and MRIN 3339 include only Thomas with no wife or Child. To fix those you only need to remove the MRINs. Go to Thomas @ Margery in Family view Open the Marriage List and click in the husband box at the top of the screen to sort all Thomas' MRINs together.
