As a computer writer, it always amaze me that things that shoyuld be easy are usually not. A case in point. In BUMP 6, i chose incramental backup. Then in options, it defaults to overwrite & won'y let a use change the config.
Then after the first backup which I left in default & is names backupmypc0001, it defaults to the same name & asks if I wnat to overwrite it. I chose no & gave the same name ending in 0002. Fine, but now I have 2 (actualy mo5re) backup sets) is this correct or shuld I have let it overwrite. Help gives no clue. Well this site says the regestration list is located near the top, when it's actually near the bottom & I had to spend an hour to get my account straight to log in.
Does anybody care? I for one don't want to find I can't restore my files. And in looking at Restore, there were problems as well. How about a simple 1 paragraph instructionj. I hope Roxio will leave this on the site. I see little support efforts for BUMP. If not, I'll have to post it eklsewhere.
Any help will be appreciater.
Thanks

You've posted in the Easy Media Creator 9 Vista forum, but BUMP isn't compatible with Vista.
Please read this topic. It might help you.
