You should know that the same task can generate multiple versions (delta and differential) of image files, so we had to add a suffix to the file name to distinguish them. Do you have any good suggestions to solve this problem?


We will improve it in future releases. What we don't understand, however, is why we would want to put image files for multiple tasks in the same folder, which can lead to confusion, and wouldn't it be more intuitive to create a separate folder for each task?

Both those are just minor pet peeves coming from a guy who does not bother with incrementals, so I understand why the simple naming may not be great for others, and it's not a big deal to me, just one more little thing I have to do, rename them so they make sense to me. Acronis made it so if you renamed them, they would not even work!

I store all my backups in the same folder, right next to a text file with the same name I make while installing that details, dates, tweaks done, driver versions, etc., and any "To-do lists" for later, after restore. Kind of a manual "log". I just name the images to avoid confusion. WIN10-minimal.dbi, WIN10-full.dbi, Debian-12.7.dbi, Debian-12.9.dbi, etc. If I wanted them in separate folders, I'd make and name the folders myself!

Maybe both could be added as a toggle in the settings? "Exact naming" = checkbox, "Direct pathing" = Check!

Also, I should say I am really liking HBS so far, so don't take this as criticism, just personal preference suggestions.

HBS allows you to rename image files without causing any problems. I will feed back your suggestions to my development team, and we accept suggestions and criticisms, as long as they are not unreasonable. Thanks.
