•Run this profile on Windows shutdown/logoff: If this option is enabled, the profile will run when you shutdown, restart, or logoff from Windows. By default, SyncBack will warn you there are profiles set to run on shutdown/logoff when you exit SyncBack. This is because SyncBack must be running at the time of logoff or shutdown for the profiles to be run.

Windows has many restrictions on how programs can react to and handle the shutdown or restart of a computer. Due to these restrictions Run Before and Run After programs will silently fail and not even start if the profile is set to run on shutdown/logoff and the computer is shutdown or restarted (the programs will still be run as per normal if its a logoff).
If the profiles that are run on shutdown/logoff take more than a few minutes then Windows will abort the shutdown/logoff. |
•Run this profile when I login to Windows: A special entry is created in the Windows Task Scheduler (this avoids receiving UAC elevation prompts). Note that a profile set to run on login will be run unattended. Due to the nature of this setting it cannot be set to be on by default. However, unlike in earlier versions of SyncBack this setting can now be exported/imported and copied to another profile. If this setting is ticked, but not enabled, then the profiles login schedule is set to run elevated but you are currently running SyncBackPro unelevated, which means (due to Windows security) you cannot change the setting.
If you are using these settings with a Group Queue, please see the Groups help page for important details.
