Re: [Bacula-users] mystifying restore problem w/ bacula-fd for, windows 3.0.1 .. invisible directories created
I doubt that it's a corrupted file system, it's merely hidden directories. If you go into windows explorer and change the settings so it shows you Hidden, System, Operating System, etc files you should now be able to see those dirs from windows explorer. I don't think that will affect the command prompt behavior that you've found but that behavior is not unusual for when directories are marked System or Hidden.

Re: [Bacula-users] mystifying restore problem w/ bacula-fd for, windows 3.0.1 .. invisible directories created
Indeed they were marked as system files. I have no idea how they got that way. I did two restores, one from a full, and one from a differential, and the one from the full always came up marked as a System file. I repeated it three times, almost running out the disk before I caught on. The differential restore of the same folders had no such problem. The files backed up were at no time ever marked as system files. Some parts of them may have been hidden, but never marked as system files. I will be trying to reproduce this.

Re: [Bacula-users] mystifying restore problem w/ bacula-fd for, windows 3.0.1 .. invisible directories created
It's not expected because the behavior is demonstrably different with a different version of the fd. I will be reproducing in excruciating detail. Whether it's ever looked at is not up to me. Bob Hetzel wrote: While I can't comment on differential backups as I've never found a use for them, I have seen this behavior and can tell you that it's fully expected with stuff under the Documents and Settings tree as I see it all the time. MS really doesn't want you poking around in some dirs unless you already know what you're looking for. I guess they call that security by obscurity.
