When I run a Windows Vista restore back to a previous point some of the more recent entries in the calender are lost. Sorry I can't tell how far back but definitely the previous day and possibly the day before. This might be a Vista problem but I don't seem to lose data anywhere else. Its only a small thing but annoying if you cant remember the details of the event.
after the events were entered the computer was shut down successfully in the normal way.
I did search all the bugs but couldn't find this one, if its there, sorry.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Restore to a previous point. This happens quite frequently for me as I have to run startup repair 4-5 times a month.
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Recent calender events disappear

Expected Results:  
All calender events to be retained

I don't understand what Hardware Platform means so left it at X86

See Bug 361800 and its duplicates. 

I suggest to retest with Sunbird 1.0b1 release. Calendar files use different names in that release so maybe Windows picks them up. Otherwise you need to define your own backup system because Sunbird is no longer developed.
