Dashboard v1.13 and previous versions.
Each time you manually save a backup file, the dialog starts in 'My Documents' and if this is not the directory path you save to , you have to navigate to the correct path before saving the file. It would be more user friendly if the path was remembered or at least configurable so that 'My Documents' is not the default.

    Agreed! This would be a nice enhancement - I'll add it to my list.

    In the meantime, I wanted to point out another feature that you may or may not be aware of. The "C > Tools > Preferences" dialog will allow you to configure an automatic backup that happens to the same location every day. If you are usually saving the manual data backup regularly for disaster recovery purposes, this feature may save you a lot of time and would avoid the need to Browse to a particular location each day.
