Ghost 14 Not Recognizing Folder/File Backup

Since none of the "experts" here know what to do about the problem, I had to handle it myself.  Move the folder to the drive I didn't want to move it to myself and do the backup.  Ghost 14 needs work.  I hope the next version is better than this one.  I'm thinking of getting rid of it since I can do an ISO of each drive myself not using it.  If you can't do a selective backup that the program recognizes (it doesn't show up in parts of this program), then what good is it.  If I have to move a folder I want to exclude (which took more than 2 hours) then I have no use for this program.

 

Ghost is good for just backing up the operating system drive (C), but what if you just want to back up certain folders.  The interface stinks too.  Sorry I made this purchase.

It appears there is some confusion surrounding 2 separate issues: the creation of a File & Folder Backup job, and Norton Ghost 14.0 identifying your H drive as one that needs a backup job defined.

 

Try the Advanced Tab, and select a drive, then click Customize Status reporting. You can change the reporting on the main UI this way. Do this for all the drives you don't want the RED ALERT for. This will suppress the Alert Status for the drive, and allow you to create the File & Folder Backups without the Main UI nagging you to create a backup job for drive H.

 

Please let me know if I've misunderstood the problem, and we can figure this out. Thanks! 

After some playing around with it, I figured out that the File and Folder Backup doesn't work like the Full Drive Backups.  With the FD Backup, you can set up times and dates to create incremental backups; with the FFB, it appears you cannot.

 

I still can't figure out why after creating a FFB that it doesn't seem to show up as having been done already.  I still get the nag messages to do a FFB.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times just so I could get a clean install and wipe out all history.  I just went ahead and moved my very large folder (over 65GB) to the same drive where my Norton backups are.  Because that drive is only 150GBs, it will fill up fast.  I thought about doing the FFB of that folder and all of its subfolders, then delete the original since I don't plan on using it anytime soon.  As I said, it's also backed up on about 9 DVD+DL discs, but takes forever to restore from DVDs to the hard drive.

 

As you said in your message, I did what you said to do about customizing reporting so some drives don't get marked with errors for not backing them up.
