I'm not sure if this has been suggested, but adding a box below the selection of the source/destination of a backup where you can manually type the address would really help, I don't mind much the tree selection option, but some times it's just easier to type the address then go through all the folders and sub-folders to get to what you want to backup. For example I want to backup from a network location but not a mapped drive (\\server\admin-share$\folder\sub-folder) and how it's setup right now this is not possible or it would take for ever to go though the network to find the server and then admin shares are not visible normally so no help there. Version 1.0.4.337 that I'm using for this backup does have this option, so I will continue to use it until a version has Manual Source/Destination selection, incremental backup and editing scheduled backup settings available.
Thanks for a great product, but V2.X lost many good features that 1.X had.

Hello,
I would like to suggest an improvement for Comodo Backup for FTP usage.
I'm using an FTP server with a port 3321 (regular port is 21).
Please, can you add a port selecting for writing on a server which not use the regular 21?
Thank you.
Maybe this request was already done.

I want to thank Comodo for providing excellent software, you are great!
But I must confess the change between CB 1.0.4.337 and CB 2.x was a bit "shocking". I used to run manual incremental backups with versioning, and I never had to do a complete restoration from a backup, so adding the capability to uncompress the backup file to pick just a few files would be great.
Also, the folders I used to be able to backup in seconds now take several minutes to run...
So my wishlist is:
1.- Allow incremental backups.
2.- Allow to be able to access files inside the backup (maybe by allowing to uncompress de backup file).
3.- Be able to enqueue my backups tasks, as it was possible with 1.0.4.337 (I used to select the task, click the play button, select next task... and it ran all the tasks in the queue).

The ability to VERIFY the backup.
Many BU programs can write to media (like software RAID5 NAS) but when the backup is verified - it FAILS as CORRUPT (while other file types can work just fine on said media).
I would also SECOND the request for offline media restore. It makes restoring MUCH easier than having to install Windows FIRST, then install Comodo Backup, THEN doing a restore that may take hours after the initial installation of Windows and Comodo BU is complete. For me, my laptop would take 6 hours to do all of that.

Please bring back external device burning capability i.e. CD / DVD burning. Very useful for backup out data but no other PC / ftp service available. Please consider.
Thank you.

After installing, Please make "step 3" simpler. It took me 10 minutes to find a way to do it (Invalid file kept popping up). (SAVING IT SOMEWHERE ON THE HARDDRIVE)
I end up creating a file name at where I wanted to save it before running " comodo backup". After using it the first time, it was easier.
P.S. While I figured out how to do it, more inexperienced people may not figure this out. I'm just suggesting retooling "step 3" so inexperienced people won't get frustrated for the first time using it
(IF SAVING IT SOMEWHERE ON THE HARDDRIVE)
P.S.S. ( I personally don't mind spending hours and/or days figuring out something or learning something new, but a lot of people probably won't share my views)
P.S.S.S It might help, if a developer for this install or reinstall comodo backup AND have a person that never used it before (friend, relative, son, or daughter to run it)!!!!!!! I bet the new person using it would get stuck on "step 3" <----SAVING IT SOMEWHERE ON THE HARDDRIVE

It's hard being a crooked Admin when the files won't pass an md5checksum test. But like any other good crooked Admin it can be done, it just takes time(and lots of it) and a few aspirins

With Comodo Backup version 1.x, I was able to fully examine each backup job profile after it was created and edit each profile if I so desired. That is, I could check to see what folders and files were configured to be backed up, the destination of the backup, the backup schedule, etc.
However, with version 2.x of Comodo Backup, I can check and change the time of backup but I cannot verify, let alone change, what files and folders are set to be backed up and the destination drive. On my wishlist for version 2.x is the ability to fully examine each backup job profile settings and change these settings at will.
In addition, the ability to perform incremental backups would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

I would like to see the estimated backup size (to know if I have enough free space in my harddrive or external drive etc.). Thanks

What Happened to Minimize to System Tray?
«

Many of the requests here are obviously for more serious backup users.
My needs are real simple; I only need to do a Simple Copy to an external drive of all my PC files which the original version did very well.
The original version was a bit more cumbersome to set up so I really do like the enhancements in the new version as it's much easier faster and so many more backup options.
It also put all the various folders in my specified location with this version putting them in hard drive folders which is much neater.
Although my first use of it last week failed but did get it to run after visiting this forum, the one very simple feature that's disappeared in this new version is the ability to minimize it to the system tray.
That was very important to me because I had a Task Reminder to turn it on first thing in the morning and then I'd leave my PC on overnight for both backup and full virus scans.
With this option gone I either have to deal with a minimized application in my Taskbar all day or remember to turn it on before I go to bed meaning I'm most likely going to forget about that and have to run it in the morning.
The intention is to do these time consuming tasks while I sleep. I have downloaded the most recent version and it is still missing plus if this is still in the BETA stage I think I'm going to uninstall it for now and wait for these bugs and enhancements to work themselves out. I had no problem with the original once it was setup. I'll check back in several months to see how things are going.
UPDATE: This new version does not allow someone to easily revert back to v1!! After clicking on the Uninstall in the Comodo folder and restarting when launching v1 a message came up telling me that the v2 installer was still there and v1 could not install and to go to Control Panel to remove it but there was nothing to remove!!! I ended up going to the Registry and removing EVERY reference to Comodo and then it installed. You have to know what you're doing in order to do this so the general user would not have been able to revert back to v1 which is a problem if this new version doesn't contain elements from the first version that the user loved and still needs!! Please fix this!! If I didn't know how to do this I would have just found another backup software that meets my needs.

If you schedule the backup jobs, you don't even have to have the backup application open, let alone minimized. It will run as a service without user intervention.
Hope this helps,
