    I'm using the original FirstDefense ISR from Raxco, version 3.21.205 which has served me well for several years. A few months ago I built a new computer, totally different CPUs, from AMD to Intel. I have one of my old archived snapshots that I would like to enter. I copied the archive to a regular snapshot but because of the different operating systems it won't boot on the new Intel computer. Does anyone know of a way to enter the snapshot in the $IRS folder on the C-drive. There are a couple of files in that snapshot I really need. Secondly, is there a way to identify which snapshot is attributed to the numbered folders. I have 0-7 in $ISR Folder. I know I can delete the snapshot, check the numbers and then recopy it to find the number but I'm looking for a simpler way with perhaps a FirstDefense ISR tool.
    Thanks all for any help!

    I have figured out how to identify which snapshot with which numbered folder. Now I just need to know if there's a way to enter the snapshot folder.
    Again thanks for any help!

    Malware Defender is also able to grab files from the snapshots.

    Cheers

    Thanks to you both for your help. Actually I was able to stop FirstDefense ISR Services with a run command which allowed me access to copy the snapshot contents to another drive.
    Thanks again,
    Dick

    I should have mentioned that the free version of XYplorer v5.55 also did work.

    Hi,


    Arc files is just a file. To add a archive the file must be imported, in to FD-ISR.
    You can also boot the archive by copying it to the C drive. Go in to options and set the folder, where your archive is located.
