    Why is BACKUP showing 0 bytes?


    Under settings, I have designated an external drive for backup (that is plugged into my laptop), and folders on the laptop to backup. When I click on Backup Now, I see "backup up now" but then it seems to finish, but shows 0 bytes in my backup. Is there no status bar as to the progress of the backup? I should be able to backup manually, without any kind of backup service, right?


    Thanks for any help!
