Swap file NOT included in backup. This is reasonable behaviour for backup software. Windows will just create a new one if it's missing at boot time. However, not everyone's backup software is that smart. Cheers, PW. P.S. I don't know if the Swap File is considered sacred while Windows is running. A DOS based backup wouldn't know or care. I prefer DOS based backups because you can boot from a floppy when you need to restore. I used to use Windows' Backup, but I had to re-install Windows just to restore my system. Windows restore = 1 hour Dos restore = 12 minutes
