Backup set manager (main window)

The backup set manager is the main window of NH Backup. It lists your backup sets. Through the menus you can add, edit and execute your backups.

Selecting the file menu lets you add backup sets. NH Backup's program setting is also found in the File menu, under Preferences. See Preferences for more information.

The backup set menu displays the backup set right click menu, and lists an array of commands, most of which are self explanatory, with the possible exception of:

the start backup in separate process command. This command will keep the current instance of NH Backup running and launch the selected backup process in a new window. You will get two NH Backup windows running at the same time. One with the backup set manager and one with the started backup process.

the copy command line option will place the command line of the selected backup set in the clipboard. A command line is what you type in the Windows Run dialog to get the selected set to start. It is composed by 1) the path to the NH Backup main exe file (often: C:\Program Files\NH Backup\nhb.exe), and 2) the path to the selected backup set (for example C:\Program Files\NH Backup\backup set.nhb). It can be useful when manually adding a scheduled job to the Windows Scheduler.

The web log menu allow you to set up and configure your web logs account.
