SAV and TimeMachine

st181234 over 14 years ago

I installed the SAV for Mac today.

After installation, I made a local drive scan, and It found 4 threats.

I deleted the infected files.

After a while, I got alert from SAV that it denied access to the files, which had been deleted but still in my TimeMachine backup.

Although everything seems alright now, SAV interfered TimeMachine's operation.

Will this corrupt my TimeMachine backup?

@grahamperrin: I do not see that option to "Verify Backups"; have never seen it. My drop-down menu from the TM icon in the menu bar looks like this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2222880/2010-11-15%2C10.18.14%20pm.pdf
[2010-11-16, 13:50 Z] Oh, Option. Cannot verify backups on the volume where I lost data -- by the time I noticed any problem the data were gone. Terminal's view of that disk a few days back, after several days of new backups, starting with a complete one from scratch: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2222880/tmbu.txt
It was a Time Capsule on which I lost data. At this point I'm backing up to an external disk connected to that TC.
