Naming backups

[Dottie Owens]

Is there anyway to name the backup file to reflect the date the backup is being done.

Is there anyway to name the backup file to reflect the date the backup is being done.

I don't understand, that's the default setting. The filename shows the date and time of the backup, along with the type of backup. The breakdown is like this:

PCBACKUP_20051114_0749ADP.ZIP

PCBACKUP - self explanatory
20051114 - date - yyyy/mm/dd
0749 - time - hhmm (in military time - 0000 - 2359)
ADP - type of backup - All Data and Photos

The last part changes depending on what you backup.

This has been the settings since version 8 at least (I think version 7 also).
