With regards to the incremental backup mode (using "copy with deleting other than source files")...    I create and delete a lot of files and folders during my work. When it comes time to do my regular backup I have noticed that any files I delete in the source are of course, deleted from the destination (which is correct)....  But the FOLDERS that I delete in the source are NOT deleted from the destination.   Consequently my destination (backup) is continuously growing with useless empty folders. It seems this latest update has not addressed this problem. Thank you.

I don't know if this is a feature limitation or a bug but if Backup Type is Service you cannot schedule to perform every X hours, whereas as a User Backup you can

In v1.0.4.337 Service Backup doesn't support every X hours backup.

In v1.0.4.337 Service Backup doesn't support every X hours backup.

Does that mean the feature was removed?

[Dmitriy]

Yes, in v1.0.4.337 for Service Backup it was removed .

[dougalzene]

Yes, in v1.0.4.337 for Service Backup it was removed .

Shame.
I'd like to have known before upgrading.
Thanks for confirming that however I'm going back to 1.0.3.0

Will it be re-introduced? If so, do you have a rough ETA?

Also, a rough ETA on corrected spanning across multiple CD/DVD's?

Ewen :-)

There is no ETA yet. We will try to address both issues in the future releases.

If you add a folder to a backup and also add an Exclude folder the following folder you add to the backup will also have this folder in it's exclude list.

I want to synch one folder on hard drive with one usb pen drive. The problem is: on hard drive, the files are in c:\files\folder, but on pen drive the files MUST be in f:\ (root folder). I can't set root folder on comodo backup  as destination folder. How can I solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

I am trying out Comodo Backup 1.0.4.337 on an Intel P4 running XP pro sp2, backing up to an external network hard drive.

Although I select the Incremental Backup, it always seems to backup everything as though I had selected a Full Backup.

After running each backup, the archive bits of all the backed-up files are cleared ok, but the archive bits of their folders are not. Those folder archive bits are all left set. Should this be the case? And could it be the reason why an Incremental Backup is backing up everything?

Thanks.

When backing up with compression, the “Backup mode – Copy with deleting other than source files” mode does not delete files from the archive. It mirrors new files from source to destination, but does not mirror deletions (and renames). However, when backing up without compression, this feature works fine.

I started with files A, B. Performed backup. Then renamed A to A1 and deleted B, added C. Performed incremental backup with “copy with deleting other than source files” and subsequently the archive backup had A, A1, B and C.

I've already logged a ticket for the same.
