Hello all.
Im looking for a way to create a backup directly to the source drive.
IE- Mirror A: to B:, backup name "Backup"... A:\clip.mkv backs up to B:\clip.mkv rather than what I get now B:\backup\clip.mkv
Is this even something possible with FBackup? Ive poked around, but couldnt find anything.
Currently running 9.9.975
Backup straight to source

Hi,
Yes, you can do that using FBackup.
Please open "Backup Properties->Type" page.
Make sure the following options are unchecked:
"Copy files in a subfolder"
"Create full paths"
Then press Save and run again the backup.

If I uncheck both options, will FBackup retain the original folder structure when I restore data, or will all the files be consolidated into one location?Adrian (Softland) wrote: ↑Mon May 26, 2025 5:59 amHi,
