Hi everyone. I installed the software today and want to back up a 14GB folder. However, the backup task is backing up over 800GB. There’s about 800GB of data on the hard drive. I assume it’s backing up the entire drive. What am I doing wrong? See the images.
Welcome to the forum @Maddoc
If it has somehow finished, you could look at Restore to see what’s there.
If still running, you can get a clue from action in “to go” stats you showed.
If file count is going down, it may be wandering, though I don’t know why.
Windows mklink describes what you can set up if you want to set that up.
Sparse Files can exist (probably application-dependent) and can be huge.
Symptom would probably look like “to go” got stuck (at least on file count).
backup shows no per-file progress #233 got closed, and I don’t know why.
As a workaround, you could go to Settings and open the old UI for a peek.
