thx. that certainly works as well ...
however that mods the prefs file persistently; can be UN-done, of course.
and, iiuc, BlackoutPeriods prevent any/all backups during their range, correct?
I _do_ want to have backups _available_ -- i.e., _not_ blacked out at any time
-- so they can run if/as needed.
Good reminder re the 'risk' of eventual time-shift back ... I simply wanted to
shift the _preference_ to a user-selected time, and will deal with it as it
occurs.
The stop/dequeue approach fits for now.
thx!
