Unable to delete or edit a backup job

Post by kwlees »

Hello,
I just downloaded the Standard trial and I created a test backup job. I then decided to change it so I cancelled it from running. It's not running, but I cannot edit or delete it. I had to create a new backup job and am running that one now. Is this because it is the trial version that I cannot delete or edit a cancelled backup job?
Thanks
Karene

Hi,

The backup job should be available for edit after the cancel.
Please make sure the bbackup.exe process is not stuck in Task Manager. If it's still running, you can kill it and then restart Backup4all.
Now you should be able to edit the backup job.
