When the file explorer is launched, somehow I could not browse to the ..\Desktop\Backup directory where I had saved the backup.I also tried copying the file to the root folder, however an error message was displayed indicating that either the file was not found or that insufficient security privileges were available.I had to set rights to 'Everyone' so that SQL Server Mgmt studio was able to read the backups, although the user I was logged in (Adminstrator) had rights on the folder.Fri, 28 Dec 2007 05:02:35 GMTJon80
