Jim, you're saying that-

-erunt holds the same complete system state that windows system
restore holds? I read it just backs up the registry.

-erunt backups expire after 30 days? I see nothing about expiration in
the helpfile. If you're using the optional autoback.exe daily backup
program, that keeps the last 30 days. Otherwise, I read that erunt
backups can be made whenever you want, stored wherever you, for as
long as you want, and restored whenever you want.

Please clarify, thanks
