Pause/Resume Backup

  • Hamzeh Tabbaa

Although Genie Timeline runs automatically in the background, users can control the backup process by pausing ;and resuming backup. If a user pauses a backup while Genie Timeline is currently backing up a file, Genie Timeline will continue backing up where it left off.

To Pause the Backup

Method 1:

  1. Right click the System Tray Agent located by your system clock.
  2. Click Pause.

Method 2:

  1. Open Dashboard.
  2. Click Pause.

To Resume the Backup

Method 1:

  1. Right click the System Tray Agent located by your system clock.
  2. Click Resume.

Method 2:

  1. Open the Dashboard.
  2. Click Resume.

Notes:

  • Once the system reboots while the backup is paused, Genie Timeline will automatically resume backing up to ensure complete system protection.
  • Pausing the backup is not recommended as it will reduce the protection level ;and will not enhance system performance. Genie Timeline backup runs on minimum requirements ;and automatically adjusts its resource use based on the usage of other programs.
