Is it possible to create a file,that will "restore" the purity for the new OSMW10?
So that you don’t have to delete/clean everything again.
Run it from another directory, we have checked it again and there is no such error
When I click to save a new back up, I get the error message "Could not create a destination folder!" How can I make this work? Further, please be sure to let me know where should the destination folder be placed/found, because I have a folder of backups made from v1.3 and would like to attach it to my current "Backpu Start Menu Layout – BackupSML_x64" software I have installed.
Sended, Thank you
