Windows Vista Home Premium supports automated back ups to a network share, so I would assume the Windows 7 Home Premium would also have this feature. However, several pages on the Microsoft site make it not-so-clear to whether the feature made it into RTM.
Can anyone with Windows 7 Home Premium installed confirm whether or not you can set an automated backup to write files to a network drive? Failing that, can you trick it by using a network mapped drive?
(I currently have the Ultimate RC installed and am trying to figure out which RTM version to by)
Answer
Having just installed Home Premium onto a Virtual PC, I can confirm that not only does Home Premium not support backing up to a network share, but that mapped network drives do not show up in the "Backup Location" list.
