You are welcome.
You may try using powershell scripts for now.

Another way to check where restore points are written is to right-click on the desired file or backup > go to its properties > "Restore points" tab.
There is a "Tapes" column showing the desired info.
Thanks!

Depends on what exactly you want. There are some good scripts on Powershell subforum.
Please take a look.

Thanks!
I'm struggling to find this information, where exactly are we right-clicking on the backup for this information? I've tried Backups | Tape | Job Name | Properties but don't see tape info?

Ahhhh, many thanks - I never do any "Files" based backups so have never even clicked on that option as I assumed I'd never find anything in there! :)

Never say never :)
As I said we will think how to show the info more explicitly.

Yeah I've been limping by w/ the Files, Tape, (search for my backup file name), then go through and right-click/properties each one but it can be a little time-consuming and tedious after a while. Looking forward to those columns getting fixed up a bit. :wink:
