How to run a backup on system shutdown

[Ian Edmont]

Hi,

I'm using SyncBack to run periodic backups of my files.

The program come with a scheduler built in which uses the standard windows
task scheduler.

What I would like to do is run an automatic backup everytime the system
shuts down but as far as I can see the standard windows task scheduler does
not allow this.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can achieve this please?

Many thanks.

Ian Edmont.

If the app has CLI options, then you can run a script via GP on shutdown to
do what you need.

Start > Run, type: gpedit.msc

Scroll down to "Computer Configuration" and click the + to expand it. Then
click the + next to "Windows Settings". Then finally, select "Scripts
(Startup/Shutdown)"
