I didn't click on default, it was just there in the window with nothing else showing, so I didn't know I had to select it--is that what you mean, I should have clicked on it. I just figured because it was the only thing there that I did not need to do anything about it, so I did nothing to the word, "default" itself, just clicked next. And I never got to a window asking me if I wanted to password protect my backup. In fact, after your pic of the window asking me about password protect, I never got any of the rest of the screens. As far as my memory goes, not sure about it, but it seemed after I hit the last "next" on the page where the word "Default" was, the next screen showed me a box of where the program was going to be installed--in C. But I chose to browse instead to install it on my external drive. Maybe I was suppose to let it install to the Programs in C and then later maybe it would have asked me where I wanted my backup files to go. I hope I am making some sense because now it is hard to remember the exact steps I took, I just know that after it asking me where I wanted to install the program I never got any more "Next" buttons after selecting my external hard drive. Hope you can figure out the mess I am in because I sure can't figure it out.
Thanks,
