• The Backup contents area shows results of searches for files and folders in tib archives. Double-

clicking on a filename opens the file. You can recover the file by right-clicking on its filename and

choosing Recover in a shortcut menu. This shortcut menu also enables you to open the file or the

parent folder that contains that file.

To help you better understand the search results, here is some information on the algorithms used by

the Search feature.

1. When searching files in tib archives you can type all or part of the filename and use the common

Windows wildcard characters. For example, to find all batch files in the archives, type "*.bat".

Typing my???.exe will allow you to find all .exe files with names consisting of five symbols and

starting with "my". It should be noted that search is case-insensitive, i.e. "Backup" and "backup"

is the same search string. Furthermore, the search stops after the program finds 100 files

corresponding to a search criterion you have typed. If the search results do not contain the file

you need, you will have to refine the search criterion.

Please note that Acronis True Image Home 2010 Netbook Edition does not search files in encrypted and

password-protected tib archives. In addition, the program does not search files in zip backup archives

created by Acronis True Image Home 2010 Netbook Edition.

***

When a file is included in several backups and it has not been modified, the search results will show it only

once in the oldest backup file. If such a file has been changed, the search results will show all backup files

containing differing versions of the file.

2. Search in the comments to backup archives is carried out differently. First of all, you cannot use

"*" and "?" as Windows wildcard characters. As in this case the program uses full text search, it

will just find all occurrences of these characters in the comments (if any). The full text search uses

the following rules:

• Search criteria consist of words separated by space character(s) or by a logical operator: "AND",

"OR", "NOT" (please, take note of the upper case).

• Only one logical operator is allowed (the first one that occurs in a search string), otherwise they

are ignored and interpreted as search words.

• All space-separated words must be in a topic for successful match.

The Backup names area shows the archive files whose comments satisfy the search criterion. Double-

clicking on an archive opens it for exploring.
