232426 2004-04-27 07:34:00 Is there any way to enable Auto-Revert with GoBack in XP Home Edition?

Many thanks,

232427 2004-04-27 08:02:00 What version of the software are you running? And why do you need auto-revert? PoWa (203)
232428 2004-04-27 09:05:00 Unfortunately PoWa I am away from the PCs until tomorrow so I am unable to quote the version of GoBack. I shall report back tomorrow.
I teach seniors how to use the computer. There are several PCs and I want them to automatically revert to the condition they were in before the classes started.

Thanks for your interest.
Dumb-bell.

232430 2004-04-29 06:37:00 Hi, after a good hard look and finding roxio got taken over by symantec (who seem to be taking oevr everything these days) I have found you the manual in pdf format (ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/products/goback/3.2.x/manuals/goback.pdf).

If you read that, and specifically in the contents window go to "Go back main menu -> How go back works" you should find your answers in there.

232431 2004-04-29 08:20:00 Hi Folks. Does GOBACK actually work with XP Home? It certainly does not with PRO as PRO has System Restore. Scouse (83)

Current Version: 3.0
Platforms: Windows® XP Home/XP Pro/2000 Pro/Me/98

Don't see why it wouldn't work. You would disable system restore anyway as its useless.

232433 2004-04-29 09:50:00 Hi again. Yes, my version which ran for a long time on 98SE is 2.2 - probably why XP PRO does not like it. Scouse (83)
232434 2004-04-29 10:52:00 Ahh that'll be the reason ;) PoWa (203)
