Title: Do I want to add Ghost protection???
Post by Howard Kaikow on Dec 25th, 2005 at 12:20pm
Usually, when I swap USB drives, I use the icon in the systray to disconnect the drive, then unplug and swap the drives.

for the first time ever, I needed to temporari;y disconnect the currently connected USB drive and then reconnect th same drive.

So, i did not disconnect the poer cord, only disconnected and reconnected the USB cord.

As soom as I did that, a pop up appeared from the systray asking whether I wanted Ghost to add protection. It did not say protection for what.

What did that pop up mean?

I have never seen nor heard of that pop-up.

I use Ghost 2003 and unplug my external Iomega all the time - never have seen any pop-up?

It happens EVERY time I swap USB drives.

I have deleted the backup set definition that created a recovery point set, and I have deleted the vsnap.idx file on all drives.

I suspect that Ghost wants to add the vsnap.idx files.

However, I have previously deleted backup set definitions and the vsnap.idx files, and not received the message, so this pop up seems odd now.

If it continues, I'll uninstall Ghost.

I eliminated the problem by uninstalling Ghost 10.
