Is this by any chance still available?

Why didn't you just directly sent him a message?

You have a 35 itrader, you should have used the messaging system before? Chances are better that a private message would reach him, as he would be notified via email, than replying to the thread, which he would only see only see a notification if he logs in - which last happened on 29 October. (except of course if he explicitly subscribed to the thread, with instant email notification)

Or you can choose a backup software to simplify your works. A friend of mine provide Vinchin to me before half a year, I love it when I use it! It's easy to install with agentless, and it can be controll within a webconsole. My environment is Vmware, and they are very compatible! So I had to share Vinchin backup & Recovery. Maybe you'll lose your troubles after you use it.

I think I'm too dumb to understand what is going on here, do you mind explaining it more simply how backup software helps with a job application?
