Hybrid Backup Sync jobs failing - SOLVED!

Post by spile »

After running into problems with my backups to Google Drive failing after many months/years of previously working I inadvertently deleted one of my profiles!
I attempted to recreate the profile by going to Storage Space > Profile (Open the drop down - not obvious) and trying to Edit and even Delete and Recreate the Profile - This did not work for me.
Next I tried to recreate a new Job by going to Overview > Backup > Cloud Backup > etc etc - BIG MISTAKE!
Instead I worked out that what I should have done was gone to Overview > Sync > One-way Sync

Next time I must remember...
Use Create Job > Sync > One-way Sync NOT Create Job > Backup > Cloud Backup

All I had to do was login to my Google Drive Account and Allow access and it worked.
Using the Backup option I had to log into https://console.developers.google.com and go all sorts of rigmaroles that didn't work!

WARNING !!!! A one-way sync is not the same as a Backup.

With a one-way sync, you only get a copy of your current file. If your file is corrupted, the sync will only contain that corrupted version.

With a backup, you would be able to go back to older versions of the file.
