ThinkVantage Rescue & Recovery Delete Back Up on USB HDD

#1 Post by SatDoug » Sat Apr 05, 2008 5:38 pm

Good day All:
I’m looking for some help in deleting back-ups that exist on an external (USB) drive, that were created using ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 3. Under Advanced, there is an option to Delete backups under Local. I can select the back-ups not wanted & delete. However, I have also copied those back-ups to an external USB drive (that has been formatted as a boot device by ThinkVantage). I can see those under view back-ups on the USB drive. I cannot delete any of the back-ups on the USB drive; there is no option or drop down selection; my only location is Local. Besides reformatting this USB drive, is there a secret way to do it? I only want to keep the most recent back up, and save the space for other data archiving. Or if I am able to do it manually, is the back up only in one (hopefully) dated file (or folder), and what would I be looking for. I’m running XP Pro on a T60. Thanks for any assist!

"I've come a long, long way," she said, "and I will go as far,
With the man who takes me from my horse, and leads me to a bar."
The man who took her off her steed, and stood her to a beer,
Were a bleary-eyed Surveyor and a DRUNKEN ENGINEER.
