25.9.1 Voyager released

Changes compared to 25.9.0

Enhancements

Improved handling of password resets from the management console

Comet 25.9.1 brings improved functionality for performing user password resets. Previously, a password reset would cause logged-in clients to eventually close after user or background activity triggered an authentication failure. Now, management console users can choose whether to distribute updated passwords or disconnect devices, with well-established outcomes.

Admins and backup users can now choose to either update passwords on all connected devices or log out on all connected devices and return them to the login dialog, while admins also have the option of logging out all connected devices and terminating the backup agent.

Improved handling of non-default Microsoft 365 document libraries

Handling of non-default document libraries has been improved to allow for greater backup speed and correct OneDrive attribution.

Enhancements

Specify restore directory when restoring as compressed archive file

When restoring backups to 'Compressed archive file' in a Comet Management Console an improved dialog will be shown. Previously, configuring where the compressed file will be restored to was unclear. If a relative path was entered then the restored file would be in the install directory of the Comet Backup desktop application. Now, the dialog will allow you to browse the local device to select the directory to restore to. A filename will need to be entered and a archive format to be selected. This makes it a lot clearer as to where the compressed archive file will be restored to.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue with the Comet Management Console which could lead to jobs failing to start until the Console was manually restarted
