How Do I Edit Scheduled Backup Jobs

Thread needs solution

TIH 2013. Can't seem to find a way to revise scheduled backups I created a while ago. In older versions of TIH, this was an easy, obvious click of the mouse.
I want to review all of my current scheduled backups and make some tweaks to them, but I cannot find a way to bring up my backup job list.

The only scheduled backups you have are those on your main screen. Each listing which has a "backup now" option is a task which can be edited. Unfortunately, most of the volunteer helpers on this forum discourage editng of tasks as the results can be very unpredictable and most often not what is expected. The program permits editing but I would discourage doing so. You will get better results if you create a new task pointing to a new folder and it should be created with the correct settings.

To edit, place the mouse pointer inside any task with the "Backup now" option and right click and choose "Edit settings". or, another way to access the edit is to press the Cog Wheel icon in extreme right of any specfic task and choose the edit settings.

Stopping or starting the schedule can be done by clicking on the schedule option located along the left margin of each task which has the "Backup now" option.

Schedule changes can be done inside the header of each task on main screen or from within a task when being edited or created as per below. More information about task creation can be found iin signature link #2 below.
