I have been using backup exec for a little while, but rarely restore backups. As I need to do it today, and I found that when I restore a backup from Server A to Server B. the folder levels are restored along to the destination.
Example: (backup on server A)
C:\Program Files\AAA\Subfolder\*.*
(want to restore to Server B D:\HelloWorld\ )
All I want is the *.* to appear in D:\HelloWorld\ , but now what the restore does is that it will create the unnecssary folder architecture:
Server B D:\HelloWorld\ProgramFiles
what is the option that I will need to set on the Restore job to not to include those folders? Thanks very much.

We're still running 11d, but I would hope this is consistent: In the Restore Definition Settings...General... and clear the "Preserve Tree" checkbox.
