From what I can tell it’s using CVS and not the built-in Volume Shadow Copy capability of Windows 2003. I say 2003 rather than WHS because enabling VSS on WHS is not recommended.

Is this using the built in Volume Shadow Copy capabilities of Windows?

Hi Blaine,

Time Traveler does handle deletion of files also. So long as you can remember when you last had this file on your system you can roll back to that point. The Rollback share appears like any other share so you can select which user have read or write access – hence it doesn’t have to be open to everyone.

Quick question: Does it handle files that are not just overwritten, but are deleted? Also, what happens if someone decides to “clean up” the rollbacks directory? Wouldn’t it have to be open with read/write privileges to everyone?
