***This is an important step, and I believe should be added to the first post***
I'm using Vista to try to backup 3rd party apps and I can't, for the life of me, find the file. I tried the path that the 2nd post of thread said and it doesn't exist or me. The only thing I have under "C:/users" is a folder named "Public" and doesn't have the folders stated.
Any help?
I am using DM 4.7 so i don't know if that plays a part. I'm not sure if there is an update or not. Everytime I plug my Storm in and load DM, it pops up with an update and I just cancel; should proceed w/ update?
Just a quick bump, I'm really amped to try V7 but I want to "back up, back up, back up" before I blow my storm up.
Thanks
are you searching hidden files?
Yes, in Vista i check the search all unindexed, hidden and system files. Do I need to delete my old 3rd party backup file from a couple months ago?
i would, also when you click to highlight the folder, check and see what date it was modified, if its todays date, its there for yaQuote:

If you are still on .75 it is prompting you to update to the new official OS that was released a few days ago which is .148Quote:

i prefer using Loader.exe, it is easier with installing hybridsQuote:
