Reminder

There are 2 types of reminder:

  1. Windows log off or shut down.
  2. Last backup is over a tolerance period.

When the "Remind me to backup during Windows log off or shut down" reminder setting is enabled, a backup confirmation menu will be prompted, requesting for backup before the user logs out the system or before shutting down Windows.

The "Remind me to backup when last backup is over my tolerance period" reminder is designed for notebook users who may be off-line most of the time, and cannot rely on backup schedule for regular backup of their data. When the computer is connected online, if the time between the last backup to the current time elapsed is over the tolerance period, a backup confirmation menu will be prompted, reminding user to perform a backup.

When the "Windows log off or shut down" reminder setting is enabled, a backup confirmation menu will be prompted, requesting for backup before the user logs out the system or before shutting down Windows.
