MORE INFORMATION
The Filehist.mdb file is in the %Windir%\system32 folder. A recovery point references the Filehist.mdb file when you roll back a computer to a previous state by using Recovery Manager.

By default, Recovery Manager does not save .mdb files. Therefore, this file is not saved when you create a restore point. You have to manually back up this file.

If a recovery point references a damaged Filehist.mdb when you use Recovery Manager to roll back a computer to a previous state, damage to the operating system of the computer occurs.



MORE INFORMATION
In Recovery Manager 1.2, the Filehist.mdb is stored on a Recovery Manager console computer.
