swipe the upper left corner of classic. Under options it should be there.... Do you have classic version 2.1.2?

I don't, I guess that's why I cant find it. It this a true back-up solution? Where is the data backed up?

it gets backed up to the virtual card in classic. So it's in the same folder in the usb drive part of the pre that everything else is in. It's a true backup solution for classic.

Can anyone please tell me (1) how one would restore from this backup, and (2) in what ways it is preferable to the NV Backup app that comes bundled with Classic?

Thank you!
