File restores from Windows guest backups
-
I'm having an issue with file restores on Windows guest backups. On Linux guests, I can drill down to individual folders and files for my selection, but on my Windows Server 2019 guest I can't. The dialog looks like this:
I am curious what the red triangle icon means in the screenshot; I don't see this on the Linux guests. I can't find any documentation on it.
I do get a warning on the file restore screen saying "Only the files of a Delta Backup which are not on an SMB remote can be restored". I am using an SMB remote. However, the Linux guests seem to restore just fine.
Any help appreciated!

Looking through the logs on XO when I attempted a file restore on a Windows machine I see these entries:
After googling that, I ran across this thread, which had the solution:
Windows file restores are working fine now.
@Rocky, rest easy. Your post did help someone in the future.

@brantleyhobbs @olivierlambert Is this a needed item in XOA?

@thenorthernlight I doubt it's necessary. My XO is built entirely from source. It's probably just missing a dependency in the image I downloaded.
