Lessie 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2007 I would like to back up on a CD. However, whenever I back up, it says that isn't possible and it says it has changed the location of the back from the E drive (CD) to the C drive -- which isn't really helpful. Any suggestions for things to try? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any suggestions for things to try? TMG can't backup directly to the CD because of the way the backup is formed from the many files in the database. It is only possible if you have CD burning software which can be set for direct access. (Uses a temp file on the hard drive). Backup to the C drive and copy to the CD.
