Changes Only backups

Post by Brian K »

Just curious. Say I make two full backups with IFW using VSS and then using PHYLock. A few days later I make Changes Only backups with IFW using PHYLock. That is two PHYLock Changes Only backups based on the VSS full backup and the PHYLock full backup. If I restore each Changes Only backup will I get the "same" result?

That's good to know. On my main computer I only run PHYLock. I prefer it to VSS. On my test computer I run VSS full backups. The Changes Only backups are VSS with /usemd and also PHYLock without /usemd Changes Only backups.
