Hi Hi Hi Hi,I chose "followed link to original file", in my quest to solve the aBackup setup non performance issue, the "follow link ...." created a duplicate,which I image to be a symbolic link, i.e. without the arrow, then deleted that new link, see resulting screen shot.... I have concluded the icon should link to the bin file did find /home/a/bin/rsnapshot, and /home/a/bin/rsnapshot.diff but not the .sh append. Personal fuzzy Iogic tells me I had located earlier.The imagined resolution== link .sh executable via symbolic link to the icon? How would that be done? Thanks On 9/27/20 10:03 AM, a wrote:
Okay, If i go to the file system and the list of previously downloaded list is displayed, choose open, It opens a window where the opening icon is located when i double click on the icon another page opens for a fraction of the second, I assume that is the page which usually stays opened that page when clicked upon will launch the backup. that peripatetic page may be key.?
