From: "Randy H" 

Just uninstalled Retrospect-no joy-Ntbackup can't/won't see the tape drive,
and I can't do anything with the media in Removeable Media Storage.

So now I have a system that, outside of a third-party package, I can't
backup to tape using the MSFT delivered products.

Now I know why folks use 3rd-party products-they can't trust the Microsoft
ones to work.
