<p>The invention describes a method, system, recording medium for a program and the related program to restore information files. The invention specifically addresses the technical field of mobile storage devices used in co-operation with a, generally larger, repository of information. A user can identify files to be transferred from a computer (2, 3) to a mobile storage device (4, 5). The invention ensures that administrative information (12) is created locally to the user, optionally including time and date information (13), to enable future information file restoration. Only administrative information (12) is preserved. Multiple copies of information files are not made resulting in modest usage of backup storage space. The invention is particularly useful for generally available information files. Administrative information (12) may be stored locally (5, 6) or remotely and uniquely identifies the information files allowing restoration from any repository containing the information files to be restored.</p> |
