Selecting Backup Files

Thread needs solution

My system is running Windows 7 64 bit and using Acronis 2011 Build 6942. When choosing to back up the folder D:\Downloads and running the program, the result is to have a backup of C:\Users\Don\Docuuments. All of my current folders and files are on Drive D: Backing up Drive D: works fine, but I can’t seem to choose a folder D: I set it up as Destination: W: (where W: is an external hard drive) and the Backup Name is: MC7_Downloads_2012-09-07. After running Acronis with that setup the result is a backup of a completely different folder and a different drive, namely, C:\Users\Don\Documents. What am I doing incorrectly? Don

If you are doing a file/folder backup, the default file/folder selections may include the users Documents folder. Be sure to check the backup selections in your task and remove the Docs folder from the selection. Are you getting a backup of both the Docs folder and the D:\downloads folder or just the Docs?

Can you post a screen capture of the selection screen?

The problem is solved. I was not interpreting the selection display correctly and did not notice there was a default selection. Thanks
