I'm trying to setup a "Triggered" File & Folder backup job that backs up a single file when a particular application is run. Problem is, I need the backup to run AFTER the application terminates, not while it is running. Was going to use a "Pre" script to monitor the application by using the Tasklist command in a loop until the application terminates, but then discovered that you can't specify Command Files for File & Folder backups.
Anyone have an idea how I can achieve this?

Maybe you could trigger the f&f backup via vbs script or powershell?

Thanks Markus - I setup a script that first runs the required application and then when that terminates, runs another "dummy" application that triggers the File & Folder backup. My VB scripting isn't too good so this was the best I could do at the time.

Hi TRaj - I will put in an "suggestion" for enhancement to allow triggered events to include Pre/Post scripts as I believe this would be useful to many people.
