    Win 10 Pro file history - different behavior on different computers


    On my little home network there is one computer designated for backup ("B") and two computers ("R" and "A") with frequently changing data to backup. All computers run Win 10 Pro. I am particularly interested in having Office 365 Outlook pst files backed up. From R, the pst files are backed whether or not Outlook is running and has the pst files open (I believe this is called shadow copy behavior). From A, the pst files are only backed up when Outlook is not running. How can I have the shadow copy behavior also on A? - R is a desktop machine, A is a notebook (Lenovo Yoga 710), B is a desktop. R and B are on Ethernet, A is connected via WiFi.

    :)

    Win 10 Pro file history - different behavior on different computers

    Hello Robert,

    I know perfectly well the difference between System backup and history, and I still think what I wrote before is true for both.

    Other experts will probably give you more information to help you
