CPU Priority Setting
The CPU priority level updates the process and thread priority for the currently running backup. The lowest level will allow other processes on your system to use CPU cycles in preference to the running backup, whereas the highest priority may cause other processes to wait for available CPU time. There's no 'correct' level, it depends on the demands you require of the PC workload. The default setting is 'Highest'.

| Do not abort a file and folder backup if a root folder is missing. | Enabling this option will allow your File and Folder backup to continue even if a root folder of the backup is missing. |
| Enforce an entered image or File and Folder backup file name. | Normally, if you run an Incremental or Differential image of say drive 'C', the target folder is searched for a recent backup set for the same source (Drive 'C'). The backup set is then appended to. The file name you have chosen for the backup will not be used in this matching process. If you enter your own file name and select "Enforce entered image or file and folder backup file name" then only backup sets using the same backup definition file name and for the same source will be appended to, if none is found then a new full will be created. |
| Create a CD Engine log file | Turning this option on allows reflect to create additional logs that can be used for troubleshooting created CD/DVD Rescue Media. |
| Report transfer rates. | Will allow you to change the way transfer rates are reported in.

Advanced Incremental Settings
Enabling Delta indexes will reduce incremental file size and can increase the speed of merging Incremental backups during Synthetic Full and Incremental consolidation.
Additionally, all previous files in the backup set, up to the previous Diff or Full, are required to continue to append to the set.
