Harold I already answered that.  "I have the icon on the 
Taskbar and I also click to manually make a backup before I 
install anything."  You didn't just click the icon and see what 
happens?  When you install the program it even puts the icon on 
the Desktop which one can place on the Taskbar/Quick Launch 
toolbar.

It should NOT be listed under Msconfig's Startup tab.  I also 
mentioned that below: "A daily backup is automatically made 
when you start your PC (if you opt'd for that and you certainly 
should).".  Note the parenthetical inflection.

Hello again ... Erunt in the taskbar; good idea and an idea new 
to me. Never thought of making a backup before any installation 
(or change, which I am always doing). Now how to do this (I 
need help). I put Erunt in the Startup menu so it now shows up 
in msconfig > startup. How do I get Erunt into the Taskbar, 
specifically into the System Tray? And regarding that path line 
below, is it in Erunt's shortcut target box that you enter that 
path line? --- Harold


Original question was (pardon the clips), If your have windows 
restore turned off and are running ERUNT instead, when windows 
says it is making a restore point will it use ERUNT?



And Clint answered, "A daily backup is automatically made when 
you start your PC (if you opt'd for that and you certainly 
should).  I have the icon on the Taskbar and I also click to 
manually make a backup before I install anything.  If you don't 
want it to keep backups for weeks, months, years, and it will 
if you don't tell it, right click the icon in the Start Up 
folder and change that line to this:"



"C:\Program Files\ERUNT\AUTOBACK.EXE" 
%SystemRoot%\ERDNT\AutoBackup\#Date# /noconfirmdelete 
/noprogresswindow /days:5 "



"That suffix at the end: [space]/days:5 means it will save the 
last 5 days of backups.  That way you don't have to keep going 
to the ERUNT folder in the Windows directory and delete old 
backups."
