I've having a bad day... a very bad day.
I've upgraded to the latest beta, and I've put it on my new computer, and I 
cannot restore my .tbk backup from my old machine. It seems that the backup 
files contain ABSOLUTE drive references for everything. My new machine doesn't 
have a drive G (location of the old files) - so you cannot restore files. 

Combine that with this versions penchant for creating folders all over the 
place 
and I'm SERIOUSLY confused as to what it what. 
I've even tried to fool it by mapping one of my drive to itself as drive G. 
That 
restores fine, but when you disconnect drive G - nothing works. When you try to 
manually adjust the account properties to point back to F (drive of new 
install) 
then TB! seems to fail with some "folder does not exist" message as it appears 
to be automatically trying to copy files from the fictitious G: location back 
to 
the newly specified F location. If you don't unmap the drive - then it deletes 
the information from the old drive G - (which is really the F drive) and leaves 
you with nothing. (as it copies source to dest and deletes source(which is also 
dest))

I'm tired and cross.. and reorting to webmail. Best address to get me on 
(personal mail) is not this one anymore but g a n d a l f m e i s t e r (AT)g 
mail.com

If it wasn't for the fact I'm job humting an my application forms & addresses 
are all on e-mail I'd be fine!!!!

Anyone got some cool restore tools which work - or a way of editing these 
stupid 
TB! binary files to fix them up - it would help. (BTW - I rebuilt my old 
machine 
for my son... silly boy!!)
