[resolved]Online Backup Issue With Bdts 2011

Hi,

As mentioned, I own a BDTS 2011 version with online backup (I'm sure of it, it says so in my account).

I changed my email and since then, I can't access my online backup option! As usual, tech support does not answer, so I come here hoping to get some fixes!

I tried the old email address, my current email address, creating a brand new account but nothing works.

Email+Password is not recognized for both old and new email, and when I create a new account and confirm my email address, it keeps saying "this account is pending activation"!!!!!!!!

Any ideas please?

thnx

Hello Tierix,

I helped you in the past with this issue. My understanding was that the issue was resolved and mentioned the fact that you have to keep the same email address and password in order to use the online backup feature without further complications.

Nevertheless, I will reply to your support request (which at this time is for 14hours in queue) with the necessary steps on how to use the online backup feature with the new credentials.

The good news is that with the BitDefender 2012 version, the Online Backup module / feature was remade from scratch and you will no longer have to deal with this inconvenience

I will assist you further via email.

I have 2 other questions please:

- How do I see my files online?

- How do I do an one-off backup?

thnx

Hello Tierix,

The online backup account can be accessed at: http://myaccount.bitdefenderbackup.com/

The username is the email address used to create new account. From here you can retrieve the files you uploaded, however you can not upload new files.

Regarding the encountered issue, I have re-opened you support ticket and my colleagues from technical support will assist you.

Hello,

With all due respect but we also need time to investigate and try to first reproduce the issue an user encounter before being able to provide you with an answer.

I understand your frustration and a compensation was already given to show you that we do care about our Customers and we are striving to please each and every one however I still find your last post offensive.

I can't give you an answer in a blink of an eye every time, I always have to first understand the issue and reproduce it.

The issue you encounter with the Online Backup can be resolved with an uninstall / reinstall of BitDefender. The reason is the registry key below being corrupted after you changed the online backup email account.

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\SetId\Internal\ >>> subkey: DATA2 (the key in the right side of the registry tree)

If you double click on the key you will see something like this:

Please check the following value: obSize="2" and post the value present in your PC.

Looking forward to your answer!

I never wanted a fix in a blink of an eye, just an acknowledgement that someone was actually doing something! You might be great technically but you ###### at customer service. Anyway, technicity is more important I guess...

My Key is: <settings accountStatus="1" oldDevice="" timeDiff="43209" expireTime="1327925245" productStatus="1" obSize="2" InstallTS="1305979646" isSubsc="0" authStat_ts="0" version="14.1" keyType="194" prodId="1" moduleId1="7" moduleId2="10" relType="0" />

Before I uninstall everything AGAIN, does your settings backup tool work now? I don't want to lose all of my settings again.

thnx

Hi,

Yes, the tool is working. As I previously mentioned, you were the one and only reporting the issue not working and can't find an answer on why is not working, at least not yet. May I ask you what exactly settings you wish to keep ? Would be best to make a fresh and clean installation of BitDefender in terms of not saving any XML files (settings files). If it's OK with you, we can do the reinstall together so I can also generate the logs I need for analysis in case the issue still occurs. Would you agree with a remote session ?
