Re-launching backups after reinstalling ATI2016
Due to problems with the "Sync" part of ATI2016 I have found it necessary to uninstall and reinstall ATI2016 on my PC (Windows 10) machine several times. While this has enabled me to correct the problem with synchronising files with my other PCs and the Cloud, it seems to mean I have to re-create all my previously defined backups which is quite frustrating.
After the reinstall, all my previous backups do appear on the "backup" page of the application but the only options are to recover the files or "reconfigure" the backup. When I choose reconfigure I then have to painstakingly re-select all the files and folders (or in some cases disks/partitions), re-select my preferences on when and how often the backup jobs run, etc. With 6 or more different backups (some to local drives, some to Cloud) this can take me a pretty long time.
Can anyone advise me whether what I am doing is the only way to manage the problem? I have had ATIH software for many years and my recollection was that previous versions could re-create the backups when the backup record file was found on the PC.

Jeremy, as mentioned in my reply to your post at https://forum.acronis.com/forum/116262#comment-348546, the issue could be workarounded by deleting default "Sync" job, that is created automatically by the progam, and replacing it with your own sync tasks, those that you have created. So, re-installation is not the only way to address this issue.
