I just bought My Cloud Home yesterday. I got it installed and set up just fine. i can see the drive online and i created a folder and saved 1 file just to test it. Everything works as expected. The one thing I can not figure out is the main reason i bought it to begin with. Every Friday i want to automatically backup 1 folder from my laptop to the cloud drive. I can not figure out how to add a scheduled backup.
when i try the backup on my laptop it doesnt show the WD drive as being there. and i can not find anywhere in the WD software that i can schedule a backup.
What am i missing? I am using a windows 10 pc
DSynchronize can do timer and realtime sync. Freefilesync can do realtime sync and use Windows scheduler to do timer. Both free and one opensource, both work better than most commercial software.

WDC doesn’t allocate very much resources to software development. They may be changing to a open container model with docker, that is what the beta firmware is suggesting for the MCH but don’t count on a quick improvement.
