Change backup file name v2011 ...
I created a file backup configuration. I browsed to a different folder than the default, set incremental backup as the type, and ran the backup to create the initial full version. I would now like to change the file name . I renamed the file on my hard drive, but when I go back into edit backup settings and change the name, it complains it isn't the correct type of file.
To summarize, after creating and running an incremental file backup to create the initial full version, how do you change the file name and not have to recreate the full backup again?
Thanks

Hi Pat,
Thanks for the feedback. It would be a nice feature to be able to rename files or a chain of files. Not a huge deal here though.
Is there a way to copy the settings of an existing task/backup configuration so that you can just change the backup name, file name, etc.? I have a lot of data and a rather complex file system situation with multiple drives, so setting up a new backup task is somewhat of a pain as I have to painstakingly QA the list of directories and files that need backed up. I tried "clone backup settings", but that didn't seem to resolve the issue.

Well, clone backup settings is supposed to do just that, but I have to say I have never used it...
Otherwise, no, there is no way that I know of.
