That’s SO much better! Thanks for that, the page will now actually help someone that follows the link in the error 🙂

As I said before, we’d be lost without this forum and you! 🤘

</div>

Does anyone have any more precise explanations of the values ​​to be set, the values ​​are basically clear to me… (and I don’t have the information warning anymore)  
e.g.  
Value 1 the tasks runs between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m  
e.g.  
Value 3 the tasks runs between 3 a.m. and 7 a.m

So always everything between 4 hours… so far ok,  
Can enter the value 100 disable it or the task can always be executed, also got it…

But what do values ​​like 25 do?  
The tasks is between 1 and 5 every 2 days?  
25 to 99 works at all?  
.25 , .5 or .75 values also possible like 2.75 ?  
the documentation on this is a bit poor.

Maybe someone has an explanation about this, it would be very helpful.

Thanks

Nothing notable. It’s not a valid hour. Technically, it’ll be treated the same as `100` at present, but it’s not guaranteed to work.

> the documentation on this is a bit poor.

Well those values aren’t documented because they aren’t supported. 🙂

The bulk of the code is here[1] if you’re curious about the implementation.

Any valua greater 23 wil disable the time window (like 100 does).

You can read it fom within the code:

I have a problem with it mapping the app\_data folder for the backup.

It doesn’t give me the option to update it.
