Please forgive me if this has been answered elsewhere and I overlooked it.

Is there a way when doing a Data->Backup in the latest version of Tasker to prevent the "Backup to Google Drive too?" prompt from showing up? I looked in the preferences, but I couldn't find an option to disable this prompt.

Thank you in advance.

You can do it as a task.
Create a new task and select the Data Backup action in the Taker Category. Specify the local directory where you want to save the file and optionally your google drive account if you want it to save there too.

Also since this is a task now, you can link it to a profile too. Like run this task every 12 hours or everytime you exit tasker, etc.

I was thinking I might have to create a task like this, but I was hoping that I could somehow just disable that Google Drive prompt in the Data->Backup dialog. Oh well, I'll just write the task.

Thank you.
