Hi, does FBackup start with windows or only after someone interactively logs in?

Thanks!

Hi,
You can set FBackup to start with Windows.

To do that, please go to Tools->Options->Startup

and check the "Run at Windows startup" option.

Do you know you can monitor your backups remotely with Backup4all Monitor? You can read more here: https://www.backup4all.com/backup4all-monitor.html

Yes I have tried that but it doesn't work!

Seems like FBackup can only be run when someone logs in :(
What I want is for FBackup to run backups depending on its schedule AFTER I REBOOT and don't login. Is that possible?
Thanks in advance...

Hi,
No, that is not possible.

You did not understand the meaning of that option.

The "Run at Windows startup" will start FBackup after you log in to your Windows user account.
In order to run a scheduled backup, you need to be logged in.

If you want to run scheduled backups even if no user is logged in, please consider trying a commercial application as Backup4all.
