Broken link to scheduled backups

Support
#1

The link to “Schedule the duplicacy CLI version to run at certain times” is broken.

This is exactly the use case I wish to do but the only thread I can find on it is from 2019 and involved complicated cron job setups. I can do that if that’s the only way, but considering there used to be a thread on this I want to make sure there isn’t an easy way to do this before I dive in.

#2

I couldn’t figure out how to do scheduled backups with the CLI so I just use the GUI. It costs money, but hey, it’s good software and deserves being paid for.

#3

Scheduling CLI backups is not specific to duplicacy in any way.

Look up the service manager on your os (launchd on macOS, systemd on some flavors of linux, task scheduler on windows, rc service on FreeBSD — no idea what OS you are trying to do this on) and follow the documentation that came with the OS.
