This update includes significant bug fixes, introduces suggested excluded paths when configuring a backup job, adds the ability to exclude files during restoration, and enhances the integrity check procedure. Additionally, users can modify the destination concurrent threads to fewer than 10, and JB Config will automatically be enabled by default when setting up new destinations.
