Syncovery Support Forum

am getting new machine, ultimately will have windows 11 pro.

i am working to set it up more securely than curent machine (i log in with administrator account)

if i set up new machine with administrator account, then set up a USER account for daily use, HOW does that affect syncovery, if i want to do ful backups of the computer, and not just files in the USER's subdirectories (some program file data, etc, for example). is there a way in the JOB section , if i run it from the USER account, to define the ADMINISTRATOR login, so it will allow copying of user-independent files?

or would i have to run it from administrator login?

thanks

Hello,
the best solution is to install the scheduler as a service. Then scheduled jobs can have Administrator rights. If you want to start a job manually, there's a setting on the Program Settings dialog, tab sheet Misc, to run background jobs via the service too.

Only jobs running in the foregound (or background with preview) would be limited.
