zanemc 0 Report post Posted November 6, 2008 I've received the following error when restoring a backup file onto my Vista Laptop produced from my desktop running XP. The error reads : dyna zip unzip error no files to test , extract ( no itmes match file spec) I'm trying to move the data to my laptop for a field trip . Any thoughts on how to resolve would be appreciated. Then when I return I'm hoping to reverse the backup/ restore process Thanks Zane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If so try the following: save / copy the backup file anywhere on / to your laptop first (i.e. on the desktop of your laptop) and after that try to restore it.
