Monitoring backup protection from the Status page
The Status page lets you monitor the status of your backups. The Status page lists
each drive on your computer and includes a calendar that contains your backup
histories. The calendar lets you quickly identify when a backup ran, and what
type of backup it was. It identifies your upcoming, scheduled backups. It also lists
the file and folder backup history if you have defined one or more file and folder
backups.
Note: You can right-click on any of the calendar icons to access a context-sensitive
menu. These menus offer quick access to related tasks.
Refer to the following table for the meaning of each icon displayed in the Backups
calendar.
