If you're running 64 bit Windows and HomeSeer is installed in C:\Program Files (x86)\ then I have seen some plugins have problems installing. I installed into C:\HSPRO and haven't had any installation issues since.

Ok. Got it installed. My computer literacy skills are inadequate when it comes to setting BLBackup up. I don't know enough about directories and computer names and destination folders too set this program up. I could sure use some more specific guidance here. thanks.......Mike
Some relevant info. Home Seer is apparently installed at C:\Program Files(x86)\HomeSeer HSPRO.....For backup purposes one of my presents was a Seagate 3TB Backup Plus Drive. It is called the F:\ Drive....My Computer name is Blackhawk...
