Backup tool can't restore a file … (Vista)

File Cleaner removed this file (in spite of its folder's permissions):

C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-com-dtc-runtime_31bf3856ad364e35_6.0.6000.16386_none_171c40e96317eaae\MSDTC.LOG

The Backup tool doesn't restore the file (with Custom Restore), although it says it did: "The selected parts of the backup are now restored."

Possibly the failure to restore is due to the original folder's permissions. That is, only TrustedInstaller has "Full control."

Can the File tools recognize files/folders with this Vista dilemma and refuse to remove them? Or should the Backup tool successfully restore such files/folders?

Note: I used Custom Restore because normal restore had this message:

: Failed to access "C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-com-dtc-runtime_31bf3856ad364e35_6.0.6000.16386_none_171c40e96317eaae\MSDTC.LOG"! Windows core returned the following error: "The system cannot find the file specified."

: Backup "misc.log pass 1 (44)" restored.

This issue should now be fixed, thank you for reporting! The next version containing the possible fix will be released within 48 hours.

The Backup tool, in v.1.8.0.460, still says it restored the file, but it did not.

The problem with the incorrect message has now been fixed, and in the future File Cleaner will not list these files. The improved version will be released later in this month, hopefully in this week. Thank you for reporting!

: Backup "misc.log pass 1 (44)" restored.

The Backup tool doesn't restore the file (with Custom Restore). The message now just says "Done."

With a normal restore, the file is not restored and these messages occur:

: Failed to access "C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-com-dtc-runtime_31bf3856ad364e35_6.0.6000.16386_none_171c40e96317eaae\MSDTC.LOG"! Windows core returned the following error: "The system cannot find the file specified."

: Backup ""misc.log pass 1 (44) - most stripped out"" restored.

Question for jv16: Is the issue is fixed because File Cleaner will no longer list files in "C:\Windows\winsxs\..." -- or what? Since I can't restore MSDTC.LOG, there is no way I can test that.

Yes, I called the bug as fixed because these files are no longer listed by File Cleaner.
