AOMEI Post By AOMEI Updated October 19, 2022

This option is listed in the Advanced drop-down menu on every backup task management, so you can edit the backups after you create the task completely. You can change the task name, or change the destination to save the image to other locations by using this feature.

  2. On the top of the pop-up window, click the edit button behind the Task Name, then type the new name in the editable box, click OK.
