Hi,

Please read the documentation on the various parameters.

To create your own help file do like this:
rrrchive.exe -help all >rrrchivehelp.txt

You can also review the help online: https://rrr.se/cgi/index?pg=chive-doc

You specify the target directory with parameter "target_dir" which in the test
config I gave you was set to "C:\remedydump"

You can also use the configurator to create/change your configs:
New config: https://rrr.se/cgi/rrrchive/config
Change config: https://rrr.se/cgi/rrrchive/config?req=submittext

        Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://rrr.se
