Name of backup problem

Thread solved

Hi

I am getting frustrated by an incorrect auto-generated name for my backup.
I have just moved to Windows 11, and in doing so, changed from a SamsungSSD860 500GB to a Samsung SSD970-1TB.

I set up a new backup from my C: drive to drive D:

As you can see from the screenshot, the NAME of this backup still refers to my OLD SSD - it calls this SSDD860 although the source is clearly seen as SSD970

This is very confusing.

Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks

Gareth, the auto generated task name is simply a suggestion! You do not need to accept or use it, you can rename the task prior to it being run for the first time and the files will all take the new name, or else you can rename it after it has been run but the files will keep the original name.

One of the options in the drop-down task menu 'v' is 'Rename'.

Brilliant! Fixed it now. The "Rename" option wasn't there when I looked - must have been after I had set it up. Thanks a lot. I am happy with it now.
