Backup / Restore Configuration - how to view the backup description

[Tridens]

I am using both Dopus 11 Pro and Dopus 12 Pro. In the Backup Configuration dialog boxes, there is a page with an option to add a description to the backup file. However, I see no way of viewing this information later. It doesn't seem to appear in the Restore Configuration process, and the Dopus Viewer and Viewer Pane won't show it either. Am I missing something ?

I would think this info would, at the very least, appear when selecting a backup in the Restore process. It would also be nice if the integrated viewer could also display this info.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

The Description column will display it:

Thanks, but I've already tried that, and nothing appears. Several of these backups were given descriptions but they don't appear.

I'm not sure why it wouldn't show up there.

If you have 7-Zip installed and open the .ocb file in it, you can also right-click the background after entering the file, then choose Properties, and it shows up int he Comment field ("Test" in my example below):

Thanks, Leo. That definitely works in 7-zip, but this same file not showing description in Dopus 12.

Regardless, I think it would be really helpful to have the description appear in the Restore Configuration window by default:

What do I need to do to troubleshoot this lack of description showing in Dopus?

Have you disabled Opus's zip support or anything like that?

[Tridens]

No, all the ZIP options are at their defaults.

Does the Description column work at all, e.g. for JPG files?

(Check Opus but ignore Explorer and the File Open/Save dialogs, as the shell's Description column is unrelated to the Opus one.)

[Tridens]

yes, the description field is working for other items. For example, shows dimensions for JPG files.
