AISBackup: Restore Prompts and Messages.

The following prompts may be displayed depending on the type, and which files you are restoring. For example, the Windows Registry can only be restored from a DOS session. Windows ME users must ensure that they create an Emergency Recovery Diskette to enable a Registry restore, please see your Windows documentation for details. 

Restores that replace files that are in use are not possible either. These files will be restored to a temporary location, and the restore completed after a Windows re-start.
