Backing up My Webs

[laura]

I am trying to back up the folder My Webs to an external USB hard drive.
When I try to move the folder certain files won't copy & it says it cannot
copy the file & that access is denied. It doesn't happen to all the files
but only on certain ones (possibly images & media files). Why is that & what
do I need to do to fix that? Thanks.

Try Publishing it to that drive.

I just want to back up the files, would I have to do that to accomplish
backing it up. I have many many websites in My Webs so that would take me
forever. Is there any other way I can back them up when it's giving me that
error message?
Thanks

You need to publish or you need to use a backup application such as Windows NT Backup, available
under Add/Remove Window Components for Windows XP

Hi Laura,

I have never used an external USB drive, but if it works similar to a CD
writer, where you can copy and paste , then copying the folder from MyWebs
and pasting to USB would work, I think.

I always back up to CD myself. I have never had a problem with images or
navigation, borders or anything for that matter, if I copied the entire
folder.

If I tried copying the files instead of the entire folder, however, it
wouldn't work.
