- You used MS-DOS 6.22 to create a compressed backup and then attempted to restore it using Microsoft Backup for MS-DOS 6.0.
WORKAROUND
If you made backups with a beta version of Microsoft Backup, there is no workaround for this situation. You must create new backups with the final release version of MS-DOS 6.0 or later.
If you made backups under MS-DOS 6.22 Backup with compression turned on, either restore the data with MS-DOS 6.22 version of Backup, or back up the data with compression turned off.
