Turning off a backup job
You can turn off a backup and re-enable it later. When you turn off a backup, it
will not run according to its defined schedule, if it has one. When a backup is
turned off, triggered events will not run it, nor can you run it manually.
You can also delete a defined backup (not recovery points).
See “Deleting backup jobs ” on page 90.
To turn off a backup job
1
On the Home page, click Run or Manage Backups.
2
Select the backup that you want to turn off.
3
Click Tasks > Disable Backup.
Repeat this procedure to re-enable the backup. The Disable Backup menu
item changes to Enable Backup when you disable the selected backup.
Deleting backup jobs
You can delete backup jobs when they are no longer needed.
Deleting a backup job does not delete the recovery points or file and folder backup
data from the storage location. Only the backup job is deleted.
If you want to delete backup data (recovery points and file and folder backup data),
refer to the following topics:
See “Managing recovery points” on page 127.
To delete backup jobs
1
On the Home page, click Run or Manage Backups.

Adding users who can back up your computer
