    Hi Bernard ( @bchabot ) and @samtheboo,

    It is not currently possible to change the location of your backups. You're correct, this was possible in previous versions, but we saw too many cases where this caused problems. For example, if the backups were moved to a removable drive and that drive were to become disconnected for whatever reason, then the user could be left without recent backups. If you would like, you are welcome to copy these backups to a removable drive or your Dropbox folder, but we've found that it is much easier for troubleshooting if the backups remain in their default location.

    I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience here. Please do let me know if you have any further questions.
