Outlook Personal Folders Backup

[Pirgnori]

I downloaded Outlook Personal Folders Backup program. When I go to options
and look at the box under the label "Back up these personal folder files, I
see TWO boxes that can be checked or unchecked. Each box directs the backup
to a different location. My question is: How do I remove one of these options
so that I have only one box to check and to backup to only one location,
which would be an external hard drive, for example.

Thanks,
Pirgnori

Delete the unwanted backup file location from your drive - or simply rename
it.

I tried that, but when I go to options and look at the box under the label
"Back up these personal folder files, I see TWO boxes that can be checked or
unchecked. The top box directs the backup to an external hard drive. The
second box is blank because I deleted the unwanted backup on the 2nd external
hard drive. Thanks.

What happens if you check the blank one? Does Outlook offer to remove it?

Nothing happens if I check the blank box. The file location area in which to
tell the program where to send the back up is also blank. Thanks.
