TI 2013 not creating a folder for all of my partitions, only some
Hi,
I am using release 6551 and when I create my backups some of them are being created in a sub-folder of "my backups" that matches the backup name, and some of them are not getting the folder and are instead being created right in the My Backups folder directly.
This is making it difficult to keep track of things easily. I understood that the default was now to create the backups in their own folder, but this is only working for some of my backups (actually only 1 of the 6 drives I back up and it was the first one I created).
All of the backups use exactly the same settings, the only difference is the backup name and the partition that it is backing up.
I am running Windows 8 64-bit with 2 SSD drives and 2 2TB HDDs, one of my 2TB drives is just for these backups.
Any help would be appreciated.

As MPV Pat mentioned, this illustrates his comments in how to control both the folder destination and the names assigned to either the task or backup file or both. This is an extract from my signature link #2 below.
Figure 6: Select Destination1
Figure 7: Browse for Storage Destination. Each task should have its own unique destination folder. Do not mix backup files from other tasks in same folder.
Figure 8: Assign folder name and assign custom backup file name
Task Name (Figure 18 ) also is relevant to Figure 8. The names of the backup files can only be changed as in Figure 8; whereas the task name can differ from the backup file name.
In 2013, all backup files will have a program added suffix to the *.tib name such as
user assigned name_FULL_B1_S1_V1.tib
user assigned name_INC_B1_S2_V1.tib as per this link example

Understand that the backup file name is not task name and the task name is not the backup file name. The task name and the backup file name are two separate entities. They both may or may NOT carry the same name but that is a user controlled option.
