The configuration settings in your backup software enable you to select the destination of your backup.  This is usually some sort or removable media.  

How do I configure the Backup Destination?

 

Click the Configuration settings button on the Backup Window.  The Configure Backup Window will appear.

Check the destination location of your backup.  This is your computer’s drive to which the backup will be saved.  If you are unsure, please consult your Systems Administrator or IT Consultant.

 

If necessary, click the open folder icon (pictured above) to change the destination location of the backup.  The Select Directory Window (pictured below) will appear.

Select a different drive from the available drives on your computer then click on OK.  You will then be required to Apply the changes.  If you need to process the backup you can select Backup on the menu bar so you can then proceed to process your backup.
