I 1st tried
"C:\Program Files\ERUNT\AUTOBACK.EXE"
C:\_SavedRegistries\#date#@#time# /days:7
and kept shortening it to get
"C:\Program Files\ERUNT\AUTOBACK.EXE"
C:\_SavedRegistries\#date# but none worked!

"C:\Program Files\ERUNT\ERUNT.EXE"
C:\_SavedRegistries\#date#@#time# is ok for ERUNT so syntax
looks ok.

I was hoping someone with a working command line could post
it.

Your help is MUCH appreciated. Thanks- bye- Larry


Any advise given is my attempt to show appreciation for all
the excellent help I've received here but I'm no MVP so it
may only apply NUGS (Normally, Usually, Generally, Sometimes :)
 
"C:\Program Files\ERUNT\AUTOBACK.EXE" %SystemRoot%\ERDNT\AutoBackup\#Date#
/noconfirmdelete /noprogresswindow /days:7

I use \#Date#_#Time# [and] /alwayscreate , with the shortcut in the
startup folder. Does the /days:7 work from there for you?
 
Greetings & thank you for your response.

HELP says ONLY: The command line tool AUTOBACK.EXE uses the
same syntax as ERUNT (why I put its command line there)but
performs the additional task of deleting old restore folders
after the new backup has been created.

For this to work properly, the name of the last folder in
the command line option DestinationFolder must begin with
the current date, or the #Date# string, respectively. If
this is the case AUTOBACK automatically searches the parent
folder of the newly created backup for folder names of the
same date format and deletes all folders except from the
last 30 days where backups have been created.

The number of restore folders to keep can be changed using
the /days:n command line switch, e.g. /days:7 would only
keep the folders from the last 7 backup days.

By default AUTOBACK does not create a new backup if one
already exists for the current day. Use the /alwayscreate
switch to change this behavior and have the program always
create a new backup.

AUTOBACK is dependent on ERUNT and therefore needs to be
executed from the same folder. It uses the same settings for
the date format as ERUNT does, so if you specified a new
format in ERUNT.INI it will also be used automatically by
AUTOBACK.

Your help is MUCH appreciated. Thanks- bye- Larry

ur CL didnt work either. Since date format causes sort
problems when yr changes & I want to add comment, I'm
writing macro to run ERUNT. It works but I got a post re
'Start>Run' in title posted today.

Your help is MUCH appreciated. Thanks- bye- Larry
