Question Database backups not being created

Having always manually performed backups, I recently attempted to setup automated backups. However, after configuring for each device separately, no backup files are being created, having checked each individual directory for evidence of a file. I've also performed a search of the entire referenced drive and only my manual backups exist. To confirm I had not missed something, I referenced the help file. I have done the following for each device (first time all devices, second attempt only one device). What am I missing?

[Device this profile is for: selected]
  1. Check only the specific device
  2. Check "Configure options for all devices"
  3. Check "Backup the device database on each connection"
  4. Destination: a specific existing directory
  5. Copies to keep: 5
  6. Click on "OK" and restarted Calibre

v 2.14.0
Calibre 5.22.1
