clicking backup only selects the mode. Now go to the Backup page in sidebar and take the backup.
Ah.Thank you. I had seen the Backup page and had assumed that clicking, 'Backup all items' would merely have set all items to be backed-up, i.e. I took the Backup page to comprise merely options.
Suggestions: (1) change, 'Backup all items' to, 'Run backup now'; (2) change 'backup path' (on the General page) to something like, 'Destination path for backup'. Also, I think that - on the Backup page - some of the options could use clarification. For, I did not realise that the program was going to backup all the files in /home. Is that what the 'Home - home directory data' option does?
I'll change this. Many users are getting confused by the toggle buttons.
Fixed in v18.6
I've selected a folder for backup (that's what 'Backup path' refers to, right - the destination path?) and pressed 'backup' and nothing seems to happen.
