I have given a daily backup schedule to run at 5.00 PM. But at times, Giga Vault Storage seems to be running this backup schedule at other times as well. Why?

There are two reasons why Giga Vault Storage will run a backup schedule at a time different from the configured schedule time.

1. When Giga Vault Storage is shutdown and restarted, it will run all backup schedules once before scheduling them at the configured time. This is to ensure that any files created/modified when Giga Vault Storage was shutdown are backed up as soon as possible.

2. If you selected "Attempt to run this backup every five minutes..." in Advanced options, and a backup schedule is incomplete because of various reasons (like network connection problem etc.), Giga Vault Storage will schedule the backup every 5 minutes to ensure the backup schedule is completed as soon as possible. In this case, only after the backup schedule is completed will Giga Vault Storage schedule it at the configured time.
