Newbie - Restoring to a different computer - jewel - 07-13-2025

I've been using File Backup to backup specific files/folders on a secondary drive to an external drive.  Is there a way to restore these files/folders to a different computer than the one used to create the backup?

Thanks.

All you need to do is install Hasleo Backup Suite on the second computer, click on "Restore" => "File Restore", and choose to restore files from the backup image stored on the external drive.

That did the trick. I read somewhere about using "Select task to restore", but it only shows me the backups for the computer I'm on. Once I tried "Browse image to restore", it shows me the backup folders on the external drive. Thanks!

Obviously the program can't search all disks to list all the existing backup images on your computer for you to choose from, it will only list the backup tasks saved in the task file. For backups that don't exist in the task file, you'll need to browse for the image file to restore it.
