How to replace files in a base backup
To replace a file in your backups:
1.
Modify a file or files that exist in the backups, for example: c:\install.log
2.
Create a file in the root of c:\, called file.txt.
3.
Edit file.txt and add the following path for the file you modified: R=<full path
to the file you modified>. The following provides an example:
R=c:\install.log
Note:
You must have this file.txt closed.
