Windows KopiaUI, how do I schedule backup frequency?

Size does not matter. The cost of running a snapshot is only a few seconds of CPU-time after the initial snapshot. How many seconds does it take to snapshot all of it if I may ask?

Do the contents of these huge folders change a lot in between your desired schedules? If so you might want to list these paths as separate snapshots with custom policies (e.g. per user@host:/path. In this example snapshots are taken every 4 hours. Once a month would ammount to 2600000 seconds (30x24x60x60 and rounded to the tune of Captain Crunch ;).

So, I’ve come back and re-read this post and I think this is actually what I’m after all along? ! (apologies! thank you)

So I guess the only improvement would be for simpler users, perhaps having buttons or sliders for days / weeks / hours and what have you. Though I think I can operate a calculator and work out what I’m trying to do.

Now my other post which was related to this, bandwidth control / throttling and possible scheduling of when backups upload (Regardless of snapshot time) might be quite useful!

However, I think with a bit more careful reading I’ve realised this should cover the job, thank you.
