Automatic cleanup settings reset every time.

Thread needs solution

This is an ongoing issue, that I was able to reproduce reliably on other PCs over various versions of 2011 Home.

When editing backup settings for a scheduled task any custom settings for automatic cleanup will reset to the off state. To repeat, go into "backup options" within the "configure backup process" window, press ok without changing any settings, and the "backup scheme" will now display the current custom scheme, minus the automatic cleanup option, and cleanup will not occur upon the next task. This means that whenever I edit a backup setting, I then need to click the "custom" button next to "backup scheme" and redo the automatic cleanup settings.

Anach,

Yes, the problem does exist but there is a workaround so you can save any edited settings. If you perform any edits in backup details or in any of the 4 tabular columns, do NOT click he OK button from any tab except the Backup Scheme column. Using this procedure, this works for most edits. A sample shown below.
