Files on a home computer that are compressed by using NTFS compression may not be backed up correctly by Windows Home Server


An update is available for the Windows Home Server Connector software. This update makes sure that NTFS compressed files are backed up correctly. You can download the update from the Microsoft Download Center. Then, you can install the update on all the home computers that have the Windows Home Server Connector software installed.

After you install this update, NTFS compressed files are backed up correctly. However, backups that you created before you installed the update may still contain corrupted files if the backups used NTFS compression.

This update will also be available as an update on the Microsoft Windows Update Web site.

Note This update is replaced by Windows Home Server Power Pack 1.
