Setting a default backup destination
You can set a default backup destination for your backup jobs using the General options.
To set a default destination
- On the Tasks menu, click Options.
- Click General.
- In the Default backup destination field, specify a path to the folder where you want to store recovery points and file and folder backup data.
If you do not know the path, click Browse to select the location.
If you entered the path to a location on a network, enter the user name and password that are required for authentication.
Note:
You cannot use an encrypted folder as your backup destination. However, you can encrypt your backup data to prevent other users from accessing it. To encrypt your backup data, refer to the Advanced options when you define or edit a backup.
- Click OK.
