Hi,

I recently tried to use this feature however i quickly found out it had not been operational.

My smart recovery has no backup destination listed in the main dialog.

When i open the settings tab i have my one and only drive is listed under sources however destinations is completely empty.

How may i remedy this?

Thanks.

Hi

That is probably because as you mentioned you only have the one drive and it would, be a little useless to backup the drive to the same drive. I think you would need to add another drive to use as the destination drive first.

Ok, understood.

Thank you for the quick reply and clearing that up for me.

Hi Dark Mantis,

I have a possibility to use a USB Key, like ''Second Hard Disk''... ?

Yes that would probably be an option as long as the USB Drive was large enough.
