Every week, I check the integrity of our servers' backups by restoring a single text file from the bkf. I open the backup utility, find the particular backup file, put a check mark on the file C:\temp\test.txt and restore it to my desktop. Now multiply that by 20 and you see it becomes a long task.
I want to make a script that will automatically restore only that file when run (no autohotkey stuff). Windows SBS 2003 Thanks and reps for assistance.

AutoIt?
Great, simple to learn & really powerful language that can pretty much automate anything you can do yourself with a keyboard & mouse. Might take a while to write your code the first time, but after that it should be plain sailing. |

How about Second Copy?
You can set it to automatically copy a file from a source to a destination at certain intervals. It's mainly for ext HDD's but maybe it could work for you too? Are you downloading the file from a net server, or a local you can access, this will only work for a path you can directly access.

Backup drive attached directly to each respective server.

Hard drives are local to the servers.
