Backups & restore points · When backups run
What does the "Back up automatically" switch do?
Short answer: It turns a set's automatic and scheduled backups on or off. Off, nothing is deleted and Back up now still works; switch it back on to resume.
It turns a backup set's automatic runs on or off. With it off, the set doesn't back up as things change or on its schedule, but nothing is deleted — its destination, versions and settings all stay.
You can still press Back up now on that set whenever you want a version. Turn the switch back on to resume automatic backups.
