To verify backup, have used 7zip

Zhaoo:

I don't know if Toucan can verify backups, but I have used a PortableApps install of 7zip to do just that. It has a verify function built in. Toucan uses 7zip internally.

Then, when my portable drive failed this morning, I installed 7Zip to drive C and was able to unzip the entire 21 meg backup onto a new USB drive, meaning that restore using 7Zip has also worked for me on large zip backups made with Toucan.

Best,
Phil

Currently

it cannot, however this is on the list for Toucan 3. You can, as mentioned test them in 7-Zip with no issues
