No daily schedule prompt

Thread needs solution

I scheduled backup daily at 11 pm but when 11pm comes, nothing happens.
Usually, my external hard drive is not plugged in, so I would expect that Acronis tells me to plug in the external HD so backup can start. Also, I don't think that Acronis starts at windows startup. I don't know how to check that.

No, it won't popup a message to tell you to connect the drive. And error will appear in the log and if you have e-mail notification you'll receive an e-mail stating that the backup failed because the drive couldn't be found.

As MVP Tuttle has indicated, the program will not "normally" prompt you to insert the backup disk. However, with a little coaxing and a little effort on your part, it is easy possible to be prompted to insert your storage disk at backup time or when desired.

This is a link which will show you how to get TI to do what you want it normally to do.
