REALLY need a 'back up now' button

    Hi

    Trying to get this configured and am reading various things and trying to get everything configured right. I gotta tell you, this ‘only by schedule and only on the hour’ stuff is really pissing me off.

    I can’t tell you how frustrated I’m getting by trying different things and then having to wait another 50 minutes to see if it worked.

    It would be exceptionally helpful, not just for configuration, if you added in a button to trigger a backup on demand.

    Gday Gary,

    There is one! Just go into the ‘Backup log’ and click ‘Backup now’.

    Cheers,
    Mikey
