Backup being saved as .pdf instead of .tib

Thread needs solution

Moved and registered my 2015 ti home but backups are being saved as .pdf instead of .tib. What did I miss?

May have solved that issue. File association in Windows 10 for TI was set to .pdf. Changed it to .tib. Doing backup now. Next question----why when I start a backup manually from the desktop am I asked if I want to let the program make changes? I run as administrator.

Nope....now when I try to open the .tib file it just gets me back to window for starting backup again. I dealt with the other issue. It's a win10 UAC issue that really has no resolve yet.

Now, how would I get a fresh install on this computer?
I think that is the only way I am going to resolve this backup issue.

Try
Right clicking on a tib file and choose the "open with" option and set it to open with "Windows Explorer"
and checkmark the box "Always use this app"

Be sure you are using the "open with" opiton and not just the "open" option.
