Default backup and restore will not change settings


I am running Vista Home Premium 64bit and have been using Vista's Backup
and Restore to back up files to an external disk, connected via
firewire. Everything seems to work fine, and I've even used backup and
restore to solve a printing problem (by reverting to an older backup).

I now want to change my backup settings and backup to a new internal
drive I've installed. Unfortunately, I am unable to change my backup
settings. When I go to 'Backup Status and Configuration' and click on
'Change Backup Settings' nothing happens. Nothing. No wizard, nothing.
So, I don't seem to be able to change my backup settings at all now.

Any ideas on how to get this to work?

Hi neatokino,

We've recently started a new forum on Backup and Restore related topics. I'd
encourage you to post your questions there for other users who may be
encoutering the same problem.
