Setting ATI to shut off machine after unattended scheduled bkup

Thread needs solution

Probably missing something obvious here, but, after setting up a schedule for incremental bkups... I thought I should go back and edit the plan to shut off the machine following the backup.

I know I've seen a check box or something that could be set to turn off machine. But I do not see such an option when trying to edit an existing scheduled backup scheme. I don't think I saw one when I set it up either... but maybe.

This may be what you're looking for. I haven't tried the shutdown option. I've read in some posts that it may be best to create a new backup task rather than go back and edit an existing one. Perhaps someone else can add more information on this.

Depending upon what settings you you used to create your backup task, here is one suggestion which provides for its own automatic cleanu by automatic deletion of the oldest files. Be aware that editing or changing an existing task usually cause problems or does not produce the desired result. When changes needed, best results are obtained by ceasing to use the old task and creating a new task pointing to a new and empty storage folder.
