I'm very happy to see a new incarnation of the Cobian Backup
I've give Reflector 0.9.001 a go and found a few bugs described below.
Settings:
[ON] Use system's temporary directory. C:\Windows\Temp
[ON] Use absolute paths.
[ON] Always create top parent folder.
Differential backup.
Monolithic compression.
Source:
E:\cd\work
E:\work
C:\Users\<user>\Documents\Invention series
C:\Users\<user>\Documents\Visual Studio 2013
C:\Users\<user>\Documents\GitHub
Destination:
A:\backups\cobian
Results at the output backup location:
A:\backups\cobian\c\WINDOWS\TEMP
Each source folder in a separate ZIP file.
I've expected a single archive with absolute paths inside. And definitely no temporary path in backup output.
Archive for E:\cd\work missing. Only work.zip for E:\work.
Task needed about an hour to finish instead of a 10-15 minutes needed by Gravity for a full backup. Maybe due to the "conflicting" source names(?)
Another task. The same settings. Different source.
Source:
E:\cd\.kp_data
E:\dokumenty\klucze
Interesting part of the log:Notice that output archive was named ".zip" as the first source folder was ".kp_data". I'd rather expect the name to be "kp_data", "_kp_data", "klucze" or <task_name>.zip.
Hope this helps.
