If backup4all is relying on folkes to use a zip program of their choice to
unzip/zip, then there's a problem.
In the past few daze, I have discovere that certain well known zip programs
cannot deal with certain files.
And if backup4all is usin its own zip/unzip algorithm, woul not surprise me
if they had th esame problem.
The fix is easy, and I shall start by reporting te problenm to Stuffit and
TUGZip, but I expect that th eproblem is widespread.
Solution is easy:
Note: The following is ONLY for software developers.
First, one must use the Unicode version of, e.g., FindFirstFile,
FindNextFile and CreateFile.
Next, if there is an error try to obtain a handle, retry with the short
filename.
Otherwise, certain files cannot be opened, and I ASSuME, there would be
problems unzipping.
