Include a stop and back button rather than just a pause button. I unselected a particular folder then wanted to include it, but wasn't able to until the lengthy process had completed.

backing up a small SSD that I use for my operating system looking at how much it time it had taken to back up 10% means I would have to wait hours before I could correct a mistake. from Stephen Brown aka Whiterabbit Email:...

Include a more detailed list of file areas that can be included in the differentiation feature of this software. A scan of the users computer could list all drives so that the user can be more selective in what they want to back up.

Include the ability to back up any drive or folder on a home network, also include a desktop shortcut.

It would be really useful to be able to back up important files/folders from all the computers on a home network. (I have five desktops and a laptop on my home network). This would save having to create separate backups on all the computers....

When backing up large drives enable the user to specify more than one backup location so that large scale backups are more easily managed. for example.........

I have a 4TB drive (a 3TB and a 1.5TB drive combined), that under the present system is impossible to back up because there aren't storage devices large enough to back up the combined drive. from Stephen Brown aka Whiterabbit Email:...

When trying to change settings during the initial back up the program crashed. Repeated the process two more times and the same thing happened. Please fix the bug or lock out any changes during a back up to ensure nothing goes wrong.

Create a more aesthetic user interface - as it stands it's garish and untidy; perhaps include several different skins with different user interface layouts?.

simplify the registration process for giveaway versions of the software, ie, give the reg code rather than the user have to submit an email. Thank you.

Thank you for this basic version, wish I could afford to purchase the pro version for all of my computers on my home network. from Stephen Brown aka Whiterabbit Email: [email protected]

When installing Genie Timeline it automatically attaches itself to Windows start up without first asking permission. Please give the user the opportunity to select whether to allow this option.

I realize it's necessary for the program to work effectively, but i astill think the user should be able to choose the option to select whether to have it start up when the computer first starts. Thank you. from Stephen Brown aka...

Genie Timeline Basic 2012

Include the ability to select any folder from any drive to back up automatically, not just the root drive; (useful for multi drive users)
