I turned File History on, but no files are being backed up
I recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10, so I'm brand new to Windows 10. Two days ago, I turned on File History. I set "Back up my files" to "Every 30 minutes" and "Keep my backups" to "Forever." I designated a shared folder on a NAS for the backups. After I turned File history on, I checked the shared folder and saw that a directory with my PC name had been created (with Data and Configuration sub-directories), so I assumed File History was up and running.
But I when I checked the shared folder today (two days later), I noticed that no files had been backed up yet. In Settings > Backup > File History > More options, I see the message "Your data is not yet backed up."
Here's my question: Do I need to do a "Back up now" before Windows will start doing incremental backups?
