Program Settings

1 – Automatically check for updates lets you specify how frequently the program checks for updates.

2 – Run the program with the administrator privileges. To activate this option, you will have to input the administrator's password and re-start the program.

3 – The option to store the administrator's password in the keychain. Once you activate this option, be ready to input the user name and password. To remove the password from the keychain, deactivate this option.

4 – Activate this option to skip displaying the warning message before starting cloning. The message states that the content of the destination volume will be removed. Select this check box to run scheduled cloning with no need of user's attention.

5 – Activate the automatic creation of backups and automatic file synchronization. If the "Use schedule agent" check box is not selected, the program should be running to perform scheduled tasks.

6 – Limit the number of the most recent log files stored on your computer.

7 – Determine where log files should be saved. You can specify a new location for log files or open their location in Finder.

8 – Choose a folder for temporary files. Normally, the system folder is used. Using a custom folder may be helpful when:

• There is not enough space on the system disk or volume.
• While creating a multi-volume archive (backup properties, archive size limit option), the whole path to a temporary file is limited by 80 characters. If the program runs out of characters, you can change the location of temporary files. Choose a temporary folder that is as close to the root point of the file system as possible. So, a short path like "/Volume2/" is better than a long one "/Volume2/Users/Bobby/Documents/Backups/Temporary/".
