    Unhappy Can't find scheduler in Backup for Hyper-V Host Community Edition

    I can't find the scheduler in Paragon Backup for Hyper-V Host Community Edition version 17.12.0.

    On the page where I downloaded the free Community Edition (CE), it states, "Flexible scheduling mechanism – backup tasks can be scheduled to run every 15 minutes, hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly". https://www.paragon-software.com/bus...-converter-ce/

    On the Paragon Software news page at https://www.paragon-software.com/fre...per-v-host-ce/ it again states,
    "Free Paragon Hyper-V Host Community Edition Delivers Full Backup of Virtual Machines on Hyper-V Host with One-Click Restore & Ultra-Fast Migration"
    "Key backup features include:
    Flexible scheduling mechanism – backup tasks can be scheduled to run every 15 minutes, hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly."

    From within the CE application, version 17.12.0, clicking the question mark icon, then "View Help", it takes you to the online manual. https://download.paragon-software.co...Manager_17.pdf

    Within the manual, on page 17, it states, "Configure comprehensive backup strategies that utilize full, incremental, and
    differential backup methods and their combinations as well as various backup retention options, where backup runs
    can be scheduled from every hour till certain days of the month, or evoked by a certain event."

    Also, on page 23, the directions are, "7. Schedule your backup job by clicking either the watch icon on the backup timeline or the corresponding
    hyperlink."

    I don't have these options in the free CE version. Was this feature removed, but the website and documentation were not updated?

    Paragon Backup for Hyper-V Host CE version 17.12.0 running on Windows 10 Pro version 2004 (OS Build 19041.746)

    I have also attached two screenshots as proof of the option not being available. Any help would be appreciated to enable the scheduler. Thank you

    Re: Can't find scheduler in Backup for Hyper-V Host Community Edition

    Does no one else use the Paragon Backup for Hyper-V Host Community Edition product? I even reached out to Paragon sales/support hoping someone could answer this basic question of, does the community edition have a scheduler built in, but I've heard no response from them either.

    I wouldn't mind even buying the paid version of this application if that's what I need to do to get this feature, along with differential/incremental backups, but I'm not able to confirm that Hard Disk Manager Advanced for Home Users will backup Hyper-V VMs. https://www.paragon-software.com/home/hdm-windows/ Can anyone answer that?
