• System shutdown - the operation will be automatically executed at system shutdown.
• user log on - the operation will be executed when the predefined user logs on to the Operating System.
• user log off - the operation will be executed when the predefined user logs off to the Operating System.

* You can also tick Once a day only checkbox to run the backup based on event only one time a day.
* Select Start date option to set the start time when the plan will be available.

Besides, if you miss some schedule points due to power failure, computer power off or other reasons, our product will still automatically execute the last missed schedule after computer resumes with the option If computer is shutdown, run missed backup at system startup checked.

And in schedule, select Appoint daily/weekly/monthly first backup as full/differential backup option to make every first backup in the time circle as full/differential backup.

Tips: In order to avoid unexpected interruption when running a schedule, such as log off current account, switch to another user. Our product will require system administrator privilege when creating the schedule. And the current version will automatically obtain administrator privilege instead of manually inputting. If you have ever set a password for the username which is displayed in the box Administrator account, then the password is still required.
