Not All Folders Are Copied

[Scatts]

I use Media Creator as a mean of backing up personal folders, photos, and mail.

 

I use it on two systems and copy selected folders from each.

 

On the first system I insert a previously recorded DVD and select the folders I want to copy. After the erase, copy and verify are indicated to be successful. I look at the disc and find that some of the subfolders, one level below the indicated folders, are not on the completed disc. It apperars that when I do a complete format of a disc (or use a new disc) it all works fine. However waiting 30 minutes for the DVD to be reformatted is time consuming and may not always work.

 

Am I the only one experienceing this problem?

 

regards,

You might want to consider using Creator Classic for backing up your folders. R/W media is not the most reliable for storing data.

. . . .and using Drag-to-Disc [on a formatted disc] makes it very many times less reliable, and promotes excess 'wear' on the RW disc.
