Using Win XP Home i installed and needed to uninstall. I ran the uninstall program but it left the entire directory due to read only being flagged. I cant change the read only flag so i can remove the Magic Mirror directories and files.

I started a backup and it failed at the 75% point, where would the file be stored on the 2nd computer as its must be huge 5-10GB. I may have tried to back up to much.

B :oops:

Hello,

You may have been unable to delete the directory because the program was still running. Ideally, the uninstaller would detect if the program is running and tell you, but it doesn't do this yet. Try rebooting (so that the program is stopped) and then delete the directory. If that doesn't work, post here to let me know and I'll walk you through stopping the program before deleting it.

The backup files will be stored on the second computer beneath whatever directory you installed the program in, beneath a sub-directory named "storage". The backup will be stored on both computers, at least temporarily, so yes you would need a lot of disk space if you wanted to back up 5 - 10 G. Future versions may deal more intelligently with very large backups, but for now we recommend limiting the size of what is backed up.

Thanks,
