Re: Backup

In the main window under Backup and Restore click on "Start Backup".

I should have said before, I don't have Backup set up individually on each
PC, I have centralised backup on one device for all 3 PCs in my Circle. What
I should have asked is How do I start a centralised backup run?

(If you don't have individual backup plans the Start Backup option doesn't
appear.)

Re: Backup

Oh, I see. I have two computers--desktop and a laptop--in my Circle with
the desktop as the hub. I have setup a centralized backup for both
computers with an external USB drive on the hub. But unlike what you
mentioned, I still have the option of manually performing a backup on the
laptop (I just cannot change it's backup options as that has to be done on
the hub). I do not understand why I have this option and you don't though.
In fact I forced a backup last night on the laptop because I had to do a OC
reinstall on it (long story).
