Thread needs solution

I just updated my 2014 version to the 2015 version.

In 2014 it already was a tedious task to start multiple backups simultaneously (I currently have 10), having to click once for each backup. In 2015 it is even more unconvincing, since now I have to select the backup from the list before I can click the appropriate button (thus having to click twice to start each backup process).

This is a step back for me and I'm wondering why this hasn't been made more usable, since backing up is what people are supposed to do with this software...

Did I miss something, or is this really how it is supposed to work?

No, you did not miss anything.

It seems that the main focus of this version was to blend in nice into the Windows 8 Metro GUI.
Simplicity as much as possible, so a lot of features of the old versions are dropped. I guess the backend still has the feature but as an end user you can´t see and use them anymore.

- Missing context menu
- Version chain view and management (delete specific versions)
- and more

Yes, this is exactly what I thought! It is simple now, but also not as powerful any more.

Hopefully, those missing features will be added with coming updates. I'd regret updating to the 2015 version if they weren't...
