User interface

You can access the user interface by double clicking on its icon on the task bar. The user interface is a "dummy" program. The real work on a backup is produced by the engine as an application or a service. The user interface and the engine communicate using memory mapped files.

On the Properties tab you will find the properties of the selected tasks. You create a task by clicking the "New task" button or by selecting "New task" from the main menu. You can edit a task, by double clicking on a task.

On the History tab you will find the history of all the backups performed on the selected task.

If you right click on a backup set you can access the backup's properties, delete the backup set inclusive it's files  or Park the backup. Parking the backup is a way of protecting the backup set's files. A parked backup cannot be deleted by the program (automatically) nor can it be deleted by the user. To delete a parked backup, unset the Parked flag.

In the Log tab you can see the log file in real time, with all the operations that are going on in the engine.
