Desktop reminder
Hi,
I'm using the trial of true image 2017 and I backup my data into an external disk.
Because the external drive is not always connected to the laptop, and the routine is managed automatically from True Image is it possible to set a reminder to know when the backup should be executed?
I found another post witht the same question, but it's very old (2013) and it's a shell script.
Does True image integrate something like that?
Thanks,
KK

Hi Steve,
thanks for the quick reply.
I have created the batch file and if I run it manually from console it works, but if I set it in the pre-command, and I test it (by the button in that window) the shell open but without output.
Could be a problem with the test functionality?
I have Windows 7.
Thanks

Tested a variation of the batch file on my Windows 7 system and it worked fine for me.
echo off cls msg * Please connect the Acronis backup drive
Put the above in ConnectDrive.bat and added it as a Pre-Command for the backup task, task stopped running until the message 'OK' button was clicked, then ran to completion.
