Harold, I've been telling you since day one that you didn't
initially opt to put ERUNT in the Startup folder. ;-) From my
first post on it:
"...But at any rate, 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."

Hello again. An explanation of what was happening in our Erunt
discussion. Now I see what the whole error was about. When I
initially installed Erunt, long before this entire discussion
started among Clint, Larry, and me, I never clicked yes to
"Create an ERUNT entry in the Startup folder?"
When, during our discussion, I decided it was a good idea to
put Erunt in the Startup folder, I just put the Erunt shortcut.
It never occurred to me that there was the option of using an
"Erunt Autobackup" shortcut in that folder. That option is
decided in the setup (which for me was many moons ago). That's
where it all happens, where that path that Clint offered to the
group starts, just a matter of adding [ /says: 5"] of course
without the brackets, and WITH those two spaces.
I want to thank Clint for the initial idea, and thank Larry for
realizing that the problem was in an incomplete setup (he
contacted me off the list with pictures of the different setup
windows). Here is a perfect example of the difference between
the expert and the teacher. I don't really KNOW these two
people (we're all "cyber" friends in a way) but I sense, it's
only a feeling, that Clint is more the expert and Larry is more
the teacher, in all kinds of pursuits, both are needed.
We often see this in colleges where instructors/professors
hired, some "professors" because of past or present published
writings, and where the professorial "experts" don't have the
patience of looking into small problems, and "instructors" who
might have published nothing, make an easy connection with
beginning students. Happens all the time. Bottom line, PCWorks
is lucky to have both Clint and Larry (and many others we
know).
Btw, it's a personal preference but I don't keep Erunt in the
Quick Launch. Instead, I use a shortcut key.--- Harold B.
