To disable this warning, select this check box.Dismount media after backup has finishedThis option is effective in Windows and Linux operating systems.This option is effective when backing up to a removable media (CD, DVD, tape or floppy disk.)The preset is: Disabled.The destination CD/DVD can be ejected or the tape can be dismounted after the backup iscompleted.Ask for the first media while backing up to removable mediaThis option is effective only when backing up to removable media.The option defines whether to display the Insert First Media prompt when backing up to removablemedia.The preset is: Enabled.When the option is enabled, backing up to removable media may be not possible if the user is away,because the program will wait for someone to press OK in the prompt box. Hence, you should disablethe prompt when scheduling a backup to removable media. Then, if the removable media is available(for example, a DVD is inserted), the task can run unattended.Reset archive bitThe option is effective only for file-level backup in Windows operating systems and in bootablemedia.The preset is: Disabled.In Windows operating systems, each file has the File is ready for archiving attribute, available byselecting File -> Properties -> General -> Advanced -> Archive and Index attributes. This attribute,also known as the archive bit, is set by the operating system each time the file is changed and can bereset by backup applications each time they include the file in a backup. The archive bit value is usedby various applications such as databases.When the Reset archive bit check box is selected, Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 will reset thearchive bits of all files being backed up. Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 itself does not use the archivebit value. When performing incremental or differential backup, it determines whether a file haschanged by the file size and the date/time when the file was last saved.
