Backup to old path of XP German instead of 7 English
 
Hi,

the new & fresh installed The Bat! on my new "Windows 7 English" PC makes the backup to the drives + path of my old PC which was "Windows XP German" although updating the preferences under Windows 7.

Also the timing of the backup is not correct (it always runs at the old time at 3pm instead of 8am in the morning).

The bad thing is that The Bat! wants my drive D: for a backup (my old hard disc) but now it's the CD-ROM drive. The Bat! always displays an error that I should put in a media. When I press CANCEL the error comes up again and again and again ... I can only kill The Bat!. :-(

I've also tried to find the old German path in any data file or registry entry without success.

My old PC with Windows XP German was specified:

Currently The Bat! under Windows 7 tries to backup to my old "D:\ROBERT" AND(!) "C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\ROBERT\Anwendungsdaten\The Bat!\autobackup.tbk". Why 2 backups?
---

Why does this happen and how can I fix that?
 
PS:

My current preferences in The Bat! / Windows 7 English are:

Auto-Backup - every 1 days at 8:30 to
L:\Robert Graf\Config\The Bat\LatestBackup.tbk

This has never happend!

Instead of that it tries to backup to the path of my Windows XP German:
"D:\ROBERT" or "C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\ROBERT\Anwendungsdaten\The Bat!\autobackup.tbk"

Thanks for a fix.
 
I guess the old backup is probably in Scheduler (under Tools) - right-click on the action to edit it.
 
Thanks a lot - that's correct. I've just changed it and now it works.

I've overwritten my old path "D:\ROBERT" on the scheduled task - but there were other backups to

"C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\ROBERT\Anwendungsdaten\The Bat!\autobackup.tbk"

(= German = Documents & Settings directory). Why does this happen? Where to change?
