Hi
Thanks for replying.
I do not have the option to start/stop the backup, so I cant try that one.
I do have the option to sync to PC, however this then makes a 2-way transfer directory, which is fine.
However there is a problem. When I start the sync, it created a new directory on my C drive and starts to download all the files.
Is there any way to re locate where it syncs the files too. I need the files to sync onto another drive.

HI MWThewsey
ReadyCloud should not create a new folder for resync. Have you changed your PC name? Can you provide us a screenshot of your ReadyCloud sync.
Regarding syncing to another drive there is no option, you will have to create a backup job on the NAS to do it, or you can just transfer the data from your PC to the other drive.
Regards
