Should be able to have it blank if you want.

Ok, but the program doesn't remember it when I close and start again the program.
Shane:
Correct. Right now I have it set not to remember.
The reason why is lets say someone makes a name to identified it. Then they let it go as the auto backups keep going. If it saved the name every backup after that would have the same, thus confusing the person on which was the backup they wanted.
So I just have the one default name in there. I could just have the name blank by default instead :-)

Yeah, but what temp folder? C:\Windows\Temp? In my case I moved TMP and TEMP System variables from C:\windows\temp to d:\temp, have you considered this particular case?
Shane:
Windows is very picky on this.
In order to use the Reg restore API in Windows the reg hive files HAVE to be on the same drive as windows or the API will fail.
So I have the program find the Windows folder and it puts the files into the Temp folder there :wink:
This way no matter what the reg files are copied to the same drive as Windows.
Also on the naming of the backup, do you think it would be a good idea to have the program auto name the backups when run automatically? Like "Auto Backup"
This way when you check the list you will know which was from the scheduled backup and which ones you did.

Shane:
I know what I will do.
I will add 2 settings to the advanced settings section.
Here you can tell the program the Default Backup name and the Default Backup name when run automatically.
This way people can still set their own like you want while not saving it on the main area and letting custom names work like I wanted. :wink:
Will get started on it now.
