### Engine

- **FIXED**"Copy Media Set" now includes all snapshots including those not retrieved (#5082)
- **FIXED**Fix grooming issue where in complex scenarios grooming could corrupt files backed up with [BLIB](https://www.retrospect.com/en/documentation/user_guide/win/block_level_incremental_backup) (#5116)
- **FIXED**Fix grooming and set copy issue where certain scenarios could restore corrupted versions of files backed up with [BLIB](https://www.retrospect.com/en/documentation/user_guide/win/block_level_incremental_backup) (#5109)

### Known issues with this release

- Engine: Customers can encounter the following message in the log during grooming: "grxSearchForPartialFiles: unable to find all dependent partial files for 'file_path'". For large files using Block Level Incremental Backup (BLIB), this indicates that older versions of the file have been groomed out by prior Retrospect releases and are no longer restorable (#5085), but the most recent full/base version and the incremental versions based on it are properly preserved. For files not using BLIB, these messages can be safely ignored, including backups from SQL and Exchange add-ons (#5100).

Known issues with this release

- **Files marked as private with the Retrospect Client are invisible** to a Retrospect engine running on the same computer. This issue only occurs when the Retrospect engine and client software are both installed on the same Mac.
- **System Preference panes are not uninstalled from disks encrypted with FileVault whole disk encryption**. To remove the Retrospect and Retrospect Client System Preference panes from disks encrypted with FileVault’s whole disk encryption feature activated, right-click (or Control-click) on them in System Preferences and select the Remove option.
- **Media Sets with DES encryption** created on PowerPC-based Macs running Retrospect 8 cannot be read by Intel-based Macs and vice versa. We recommend that users requiring data encryption switch to the more advanced AES standard.
- **Disk Media Set members cannot be edited on Mac OS X 10.5 64-bit Macs**. We recommend running Mac OS X 10.6 “Snow Leopard” or later on 64-bit-capable Intel Macs.
- **Tape library magazine slot assignment changes do not update** until the Retrospect console is quit and restarted.
