Back-Up to the Cloud:

Thread needs solution

I recently backed-up my computer to an external hard-drive.  Now I am thinking about exploring backing-up my computer to the Cloud.  But, when I open Acronis, the option that I see regarding a back-up is to back my computer up to the same location on the hard-drive where the recent back-up occurred.  How can someone change the location of a back-up?  (When I click on "Change "Location" in Acronis, I am presented with locations on the external hard-drive.)  Any and all information/suggestions are welcome.

Acronis's idea of "the cloud" is the expensive service it charges for.

 

To use a different cloud, I have to create local backups and using backup software to copy to that.

 

There are alternatives to Acronis True Image that let you put backups where you want them without ripping you off in the process.

Referee06, you cannot change the Destination location of an existing backup task to the Acronis Cloud, this is only available on a new backup task where it is normally the default destination.
