And yet sometimes it would be nice to be able to clone a job and then just edit the path instead of having to navigate all over the place to get to the new, very similar path. Maybe a new option, "Edit as test"?

Oddly, if you enter a destination manually and it points to a valid directory, when you try to edit it, you get the explorer based directory picker and not the text editor, so not actually that useful unless you're using something like %DATE or having Cobian create a folder.

I'm sure it's me. the program works fine with the ini file in the project folder, but not in the Cobian folder. I shall have to investigate further and see where it goes wrong.

So since I figured Out I could use things like dd, ddd and MM to make backups that automatically keep "n" events and replace the oldest one automatically, I've been anxiously waiting for you to implement something. A couple of days ago I realized I could just write a small command line program that ...
