Dick, It's getting near dinner time here, it may be best if we leave it and see if the Auto schedule does work and I could let you know the results tomorrow when it's finished??

As you wish. Be aware, based on the amount of data in your C: partition, approximately 216GB, the backup will create an image of approximately 130GB. That is with the default 40% compression. Based on your hardware, the run time may exceed 45 minutes to 1 hour. Or more. Just be aware.

I will look for some results tomorrow afternoon. Take care till then.

If its going to take about an hour, that means it will not be finished until just after 6pm our time. As soon as it is finished, I will give you a bzzz @f14tomcat@. OK?

Yes, fine.

@RonBin79

Please be sure you have the computer turned on before the MR back up is scheduled to start.
Plus the external drive must be connected before it starts.

You will see a pop up saying the back up is starting, you don't have to do anything with it.
There will also be a pop up telling you when it is finished, these will only show for a few seconds.

What ever you do, Do not turn the computer off or disconnect the external drive until the back up is finished.

This is what you should see 20 seconds before the back up starts.

You don't have to click on anything.
