Probably a lost cause. He had over 4K photos that he had taken in the 70s digitized from slides and organized.
All that work was blown away. He has digi backups of the files, but all the organization and notes are gone.
He's 77 with a quad-bypass in December, and the thought of starting over is, well, depressing for him. Not sure he's going to even try at this point.
- chris_wot 11y agoHow do you do a backup that retains Windows metadata?
- yrro 11y agoIt's hardly a proper backup if file metadata is not preserved.

- erickhill 11y agoThat's the trouble - the organization isn't simply by date. It was by country - he travelled everywhere. He would actually know what goes where... But my brother (who helped him the first time) might remember what to do. Will give it a shot.
