    Override settings folder
    This is the folder where the program's settings are kept. You can use the Browse button browse to select an existing folder. By default this option is set to the "AppData\Softland\Backup4all 9\" folder of your Window login account profile.

    Override default destination folder
    This is the folder used as destination for the newly created backup jobs. The existing backup job destinations will not be affected if you change this option (you have to manually change the destination for them). You can use the Browse button browse to select an existing folder. By default, the location is set on the largest drive from your computer, under "My Backup4all 9\" folder.

    Override temporary folder
    This folder is used by the compression engine to handle compressed files (.zip). Only a full path is allowed. The recommendation is to set the temporary directory on the hard disk partition with the most free space available. You can use the Browse button browse to select an existing folder. By default the option is set to the operating system's temporary folder.
