Not sure if this is a bug, future request, or working as expected.

The target for some backups is a folder on a network connected PC that is accessed over wi-fi. Running from the Emergency (USB or Windows Boot) with the wi-fi network connected from the PE Network Manager, the File Manager is able to logon and access that PC. But the Network is not an option from the Browse Image to Restore or the Target for a new backup.

An existing backup job can access the remote folder but it would not be possible to create a new backup job and point to that network folder.

Thank you for your feedback. The behavior you described may be related to the limited network access capabilities in the WinPE environment. At this point, I’m not sure whether this is a bug or working as expected (given the stripped-down nature of WinPE). However, I will make a note of this issue and do my best to improve it or provide a viable workaround in a future release. Thanks.
