I suggest that the NT Restore process be enhanced to make it safer to use. Currently when NT goes into Restore mode you have one chance to stop the restore of ALL files that were backedup into the file. You are not informed of what files are going to be restored before the process runs.
1) When restore mode is entered by either selecting the Restore Utility or opening a .ntbk file then NT should present a list like Backup Utility but have the option to see and select individual files for Restore in a tree structure. The list should contain only type of files stored in the selected .ntbk file. The default should be no files to be replaced.
2) Before replacing any files Restore should present a replace confirmation window showing all files that are about to be replaced and giving the user the option of replacing or cancelling the replace. It would be nice to have the datetime stamps of file being replaced and the file that will replace it.
Note: Selective replace can be done with WinZip or similar utilities. I explain how in my post at http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ad.php?t=52374 . But use of WinZip is unsupported.
