SQL Safe allows you to modify many of the default settings of the application, and you can change your Management Console Preferences at any time. To access this option go to the Tools Menu and select the respective option. The window for Management Console Preferences allows you to modify settings in the following categories:

What Backup settings can I change?

On the Backup tab, you can set the default parameters that appear on the Backup Wizard. Set the default parameters to the values you typically use. If you want to use different settings on any given backup, you can still make changes on the wizard itself.

The parameters you can set include the following:

What Agent Deployment settings can I change?

On the Agent Deployment tab, you can identify service account used to run the agents. You can also choose whether or not you want to automatically upgrade the Backup Agents and the XSP if you upgrade to a new SQL Safe version.

What User Experience settings can I change?

On the User Experience tab, you can:

What Policy Data settings can I change?

On the Policy Data tab you can define the location of your policy data files.

By default policy data files are stored in the C:\<InstallPath>\SQL Safe\PolicyData folder, but you can use this option to specify a different location. Click Local Path and browse the folder where you want to store your policy data files or select the respective option for creating a new folder. 

By default  each agent uses its own installation directory to store policy data. If a custom location cannot be created on a specific server, the Backup Agent will use <InstallPath>\PolicyData.
