FBackup Forum

I had a similar issue with a network share. Fbackup was giving me these type of errors, yet when I used the DOS command "net use" to map a drive to that share and used the xcopy command it worked fine. Ultimately, I ended up deleting the network share and recreating it. That solved my prob...

I'm using the latest version - v5.3 Build 704 on a Windows 7 Pro PC which is in a Windows workgroup. I created a backup job using the windows username Jim. I want the backup to run even if the user is not logged in. Jim is part of the local administrators group. Jim doesn't have a login password and...

Actually I don't want multiple versions. I just want the most recent. However if a file is accidentally erased in the source, it should still be there in the destination if you didn't wipe it out before starting the full mirror backup! The idea would be for the wipe out of the destination to be a se...

it is always closed.
What should be the settings to achieve what I want?

When I change a setting, when is it saved...when I click ok?

Is there a debugger mode that would show you how Fbackup is launched from a scheduled backup?

<t>I installed the latest version of Fbackup. I would like to make a scheduled "mirrored" backup job run "only" from the system tray in XP. I tried various combination of "minimize to tray" and Visualization mode (Minimized and Tray) without any consistent success. I got it working on some XP system...
