Backup progress bar?

Hello,

I am running WE Smartware v1.6.something.  The User Manual says there should be a progress bar showing the status of an ongoing backup.  I do not see this.  I do see the number and total size of files already backed up.  These numbers are increasing as I watch, so I feel confident that a backup is happening.  Would be nice though to know how much is left to go.  FWIW, I am in “File” mode (i.e…, not “Category” mode).  Am I missing something?

Thanks for any advice!

Of course I meant WD Smartware…

Welcome to the Community.

Which User manual is the one you currently access? The version posted on WD’s website is for the latest version of WD SmartWare (2.4) and does not apply to build 1.6.
