    Hello,

    When finishing a backup (that HDAdvance says it was successful), then it says no game installed.. even if 40 Gb are used...

    So I took a look at the HD with PS2Menu and I saw that all the partitions are still there (except the last backup).

    Not a big deal as there were only backups but I would like to avoid loosing all many times... so where HDAdvance stores this partitions linktable ? On the HDLoader partitions ? On a specific file ? Do we know the format of this file ? Can I restore my backups ? Maybe this (existing ?) file should be backed-up too

    Thx

    Try deleting "HD Loader Settings" partition with DMS HDD tool or some of Windows installers. HD Loader would recreate this partition when started, you'll only have to accept the License agreement once more.
