Any news from @angstrom @TheRollbackFrog re your suggestion? Did you posit in the open or privately? Link? TIA
@Mr.X - The Devs has identified 2-methods to do this... 1)all MANUAL operations or 2)on a per task MANUAL operation. The Dev thinks #1 is dangerous. They're looking into a possible implementation as I type. I'll let you know what happens...
Or we could just press "Go" + Ctrl instead of a right-click option: I like more this solution, it's more comfortable for me. The 'Ctrl" key overrides safeguards.
If it does, great! <ctrl>Go has a lot of other things going on for it, I didn't know it eliminated SAFEGUARDS. (not sure it does). Is that a suggestion...??
No it doesn't! You misunderstood my comment. I'm proposing a solution to be implemented. I should've said "I would like this solution more if they implemented it". Sorry about the confusion.
I would guess that adding the removal of SafeGuards from the <ctrl>Go command would be a bit risky. <ctrl>Go is meant to reinitialize the backup task status (re-scan destination index files, clear appropriate caches, etc.)... that's not a safety issue. Mixing the disabling of a safety issue with task re-initialization sounds risky to me. My guess is they may come up with a separate function all together dealing with Safety-only operations.
The app developer thought your idea was a good one, and he decided to not only add your setting but some other settings as well to the newly developed UI option. Looks like a win-win for both of you!
First time I see Bvckup 2 detect a different device fingerprint (I set the program to track devices by fingerprint). I know this is not related to the program itself but to Windows/drivers/adapter. I just wanted to know why this happens. The drive is an internal SATA SSD attached to a USB adapter for external use. Previous fingerprint ID: 4E03E8D0.NTFS.100000.1BF2500000.235678C218CA New fingerprint ID: 4E03E8D0.NTFS.100000.1BF2800000.235678C218CA Spoiler: A slight change in one digit
Suggestion: When I right click on the tray icon, and select, "Disable All Backups", I can't use the same method to enable them again. I have to go into the interface and individually enable them all again. It would be great if I could enable them as easy as I disabled them by using the tray icon.
