I installed the latest Calibre and installed the koboutilities again.

I can make a manual backup of the reader's database. I chosed to put it on the D partition where I have all my personal files. But the automatic backup doesn't work. I get the error message about the directory doesn't exist.

"[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\Users\\Martin\\Documents\\_BÖCKER\\Kobo\\Kobo Reader-KoboClaraHD-N249060825575-20201220-164357.sqlite'

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre\gui2\device.py", line 89, in run
File "calibre_plugins.koboutilities.jobs", line 193, in do_device_database_backup
File "shutil.py", line 261, in copyfile
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\Users\\Martin\\Documents\\_BÖCKER\\Kobo\\Kobo Reader-KoboClaraHD-N249060825575-20201220-164357.sqlite'"

I do understand that the directory doesn't exist. But how do I change the location? I don't find any way in the settings. And in C:\Users\Martin I only have the Dokument folder, not Documents. Do I have to create it manually? And is it possible to put the backup somewhere else, like on the D partition where I have all other things related to Calibre?
