Please make sure the backup job with the same name exists in FBackup. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/backups-not-working-for-newbie-me#post-3582 Wed, 01 Feb 2012 19:20:56 +0000 Mikey 3582@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Have not had success with scheduled backups, tried using built in scheduler and windows scheduler, no difference. </p> <p>This is what has been happening typically: Yesterday morning at about 6am I tried again, set backup of certain folders for 7:15am. It worked, program started at 7:15am and it backed what I wanted successfully. I had also set it to do that daily, so this morning when I checked, the scheduled backup did not run and gave an error message saying "&lt;filename&gt; is not a valid backup job" (or something like that.) This has gone on like this for a week or so now and I am unsure of what to do next. Thanks for any help you are able to give. Sorry if this has been asked beofre but I could not seem to find a similar posting. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/mirror-backups#post-2245 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 00:31:49 +0000 pwrmngr 2245@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Ok Thanx :) great software :) Love it </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/mirror-backups#post-2240 Mon, 07 Feb 2011 10:18:26 +0000 Admin 2240@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Please note FBackup was design for data files and folders backup, not for system backup.<br /> You cannot make a bootable backup using FBackup. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/mirror-backups#post-2239 Mon, 07 Feb 2011 05:35:49 +0000 pwrmngr 2239@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>If i setup a mirror backup of my C-Drive to an identical drive am I able to boot off that drive?</p> <p>Thanx :)</p> <p>PS</p> <p>Great software </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/backup-under-windows-xp-and-restore-to-windows-7#post-616 Mon, 21 Sep 2009 12:55:06 +0000 Admin 616@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Yes, you should be able to backup on Windowx XP and restore on Windows 7. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/backup-under-windows-xp-and-restore-to-windows-7#post-612 Sat, 19 Sep 2009 16:44:18 +0000 Hawk72758 612@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>I will be rebuilding my system next month when I receive Windows 7. My question is this, can I backup with this software under Windows XP SP3 and the restore it under Windows 7?</p> <p>I know that a new backup utility has been released by Microsoft so that this can be accomplished since Vista and Windows 7 will NOT read Windows XP backup files.</p> <p>Thanks<br /> Mike </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/cant-read-inbox-emails#post-450 Tue, 14 Jul 2009 06:43:44 +0000 Admin 450@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>You cannot just open the dbx files and read emails inside.

I'm a new user of FBackup; this is probably a very basic question, but I couldn't seem to find the answer in an hour or so of nosing around.</p> <p>I see a few posts asking about saving a fixed number of backup copies (for example, a thread titled 'How can I save multiple copies?', started 2 weeks ago by supakeepa), with the answer being that you can't limit the number of backups with FBackup.</p> <p>My problem is I don't seem to be getting multiple backups at all. Each time a run a particular backup job, it creates a new .zip file in the destination directory, but the previous one is gone. Is there a way to keep previous backups that I am missing?</p> <p>Thanks.</p> <p>/John </p>
