How to Edit Backup in AOMEI Backupper
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.
How to Edit Backup
1. In the Home Screen, all the backups are listed there. Move the cursor to the backup task that you want to modify, click the 3-point button to open the drop-down menu, and then select Edit Backup
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, and click OK.
3. If the selected backup task is a File/Folder backup, you can click "Add Source" and select Add File/Add Folder to add more files/folders to the task, or edit the source. For other backups, the source cannot be edited.
4. Click the destination path and select another path (local drive, NAS/network share) as the destination location to store the backup image.
5. Click OK to save all the changes.
Tips:
- In the Edit Backup window, there is a "Options" button available. You can set Notifications to receive backup results via email. Please visit this site: Email Notification
- If you change the destination location where you saved the images, all the images will be moved to the new location, and this will take some time for the move operation.
- Only File/Folder backup tasks offer the options to edit or add the source files/folders. For system, disk, and partition backup, the source cannot be edited.
