hi.Acadia.i already set the location to my other drive.and the folder but as i started to copy i didnt see a location that it was beeing copyed to so i stoped it ill try it again thanks..

 

theshadow247,
Acadia is correct as always.

In addition :
Archived Snapshots (.arx-files) can be stored
- on another partition, like D:, E:, ...
- on an external harddisk
- on DVD's or CD's, if the DVD or CD is too small to contain the archived snapshot (.arx-file), FDISR will split them over more than one DVD or CD.

You can create as many archived snapshots as you want until there is no space anymore.
So there is no maximum of 10 archived snapshots, like for normal snapshots on your system partition [C:]

EDIT:
It's also not absolutely necessary to keep archived snapshots in the "archive location" defined in Tool/Options/Archives, you can move (cut/paste) them somewhere else, but they won't be visible anymore in the main FDISR-menu under "Archived Snapshots", unless you move (cut/paste) them back in the "archive location".
I wouldn't recommend it, because what you don't see anymore you easily forget, but it's a possibility.

 

I understand Peter. I like to give people a complete picture of the possibilities of archived snapshots, even when they don't use archived snapshots. It's technically possible to do this.
Sometimes new users might get wrong ideas from the beginning and that would limit their imagination.
