 * Subject: **Settings => General => Archivname**
 * Dear developer,
   is it intended that users can’t change the value inside the input
   box? The Archive Name has the following Standard Syntax… **%Y-%m-%d_%H-%i-%s_%
   hash%**The european form is “**%d-%m-%Y | %H-%i-%s_%hash%**“
 * On every creation in backups I have to change these values. Why???
 * Thanks in advance

 * Hi,
   Thank you for reaching out.You can change the archive name while editing 
   the backup job – [https://prnt.sc/REGjVQAR-wqM](https://prnt.sc/REGjVQAR-wqM).
   Once saved, it should always output the name in same format – [https://prnt.sc/KxfPFvEOa5gz](https://prnt.sc/KxfPFvEOa5gz).
   Let me know if it does not help.Best Regards,

 * Hello Sir,
   Thank your for your answer. Will give it a try…
 * As you can see, I’ve added of your PHP file a kind of emergency solution so that
   I don’t have to make this entry by hand every time…
