Understanding RESTORELIST Issues

Issues Opening RESTORELIST Files

Microsoft Windows Removed

Double-clicking your RESTORELIST file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open RESTORELIST File". If so, it typically means that you don't have Microsoft Windows installed for %%os%%. Because your operating system doesn't know what to do with this file, you won't be able to open it by double-clicking.

Tip: If you know of another program that can open your RESTORELIST file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.

Obsolete Version of Microsoft Windows

In other instances, your Microsoft Windows File System Permission file version may not be supported by your version of Microsoft Windows. Visit the Microsoft Corporation website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Microsoft Windows. This issue mainly occurs when your Microsoft Windows File System Permission file was created by a newer version of Microsoft Windows than you have on your PC.

Tip: Right-clicking on your RESTORELIST, then clicking "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), can provide clues about your file version.

Summary: Not having the right Microsoft Windows version on your computer can cause problems opening RESTORELIST files.
