Hasleo Backup Suite V5.2 Released!

[admin]

1. Allows changing the priority of the backup process

Where I can change it?  Just installed 5.2 but can't find this option.

It's in the backup progress page, as shown below:

Yeah, for now everything works with all versions.

If they ever change the archive format or something it may become a problem. I've seen that happen with other imaging programs where the new version images could not be restored with an old version rescue disk, but the new version program could restore using old version images. I always update my rescue media to be safe.

It is normal for an old version of the program not to be able to open the image file made by the new version, because the new version of the backup image may add new data elements, or may use new encryption and compression algorithms, so it is a good habit to always create a new rescue medium.

While normally not necessary, the update may contain also some small fixes or corrections also when creating the booting ISO, so I think it should preferably be updated. I always update all my ISOs.

It's the fact that the comment window appears when you're creating the image for the first time. What's the point of the description box if the program is going to ignore it? The description box and comment Window are the same thing. One makes the other redundant. Again please take a closer look at the screen shot. https://imgur.com/a/UwdmcMu

Sorry my previous explanation was incorrect. I communicated with the developer and confirmed that the comment entered when creating a task is the task's comment and the comment entered when backing up is the comment for the current backup version.

Will this fixed in the next patch?

Based on their explanation, I'm not sure a FIX is required.  The COMMENT allowed during a single backup operation is exactly that... only for that operation.

Thanks @Froggie, yes this is not an issue and therefore does not need to be fixed.

I still think it was good to bring it to your attention. I still these the comment boxes should match. Example shown here https://imgur.com/a/g333dZo

I'm sorry we don't think so, we generate a comment with the current time for each version by default, through the comment the user can know when each version was generated, if all versions use the exact same comment then what's the point of it existing?

Well that is sort of my point. In older versions of the program the comment Window (example in red here https://imgur.com/a/f8esGhO) didn't appear until after you made a differential or incremental. Having it appear when you already have a box there is effectively asking the user to comment twice on the same task.

Again, they're not the same thing, one is the description of the backup task and the other is the description of the current backup version.

There very much is a bug here though it's not a major one. I still think you should be aware of it though. I've taken new screenshots from another machine and I'm hopping it will be easier to understand what's going on. In one box I wrote

"This will be the only text you see"

While in the other I wrote

"text typed into this box won't appear anywhere"

The bug is the fact that the description Window is ignored in the first place.

As you can see the text typed into the discretion box is simply not shown anywhere.
