Hello everyone!
I just released a new version of jaBuT Backup. It's 2019.02 Build 23171. 64 bit support has been added completely now.
Next goal: replacing the profile list component with a more modern one. This change will bring a lot of other benefits in terms of development and extensibility in the future.
The new update can be downloaded, as usual, from the website or through the updater. If the updater isn't working as expected please let me know. I made some fundamental changes but I always tried to provide backwards compatibility to older versions.

If you find a bug do not hesitate to contact me
NOTE:
if you want to use the 64 bit version in the future, just use the internal updater once. Then head over to the program settings >> Update >> change the update channel to 64 bit and update the program once again.
INFORMATION 2019-02-10 07-10 PM:
I've spotted a very bad error which will not let you update to the newest version correctly.
I am fixing this right now and pushing the update online right after that.
Step-by-step instructions: (a bunch of text but don't worry, it's not difficult)
Recommended way:
Just re-download the package of your choice (32 bit or 64 bit, portable or setup) here and extract it over your existing package (portable) or install it on your system (setup):

Advanced way, not recommended
Check for updates as usual and download them. When being asked to install and restart, don't click this button and just close and exit the program.
The following depends on where you let download your updates to (this option is set in Options >> File processing >> Temporary directory):
-- Subdirectory in jaBuT Backup directory: open the directory where jaBuT Backup is being installed
-- Windows temporary folder: open your Windows Explorer and open your Temporary Windows Folder by typing in %temp% in the adress bar followed by hitting enter
Find a directory which begins with ~jbTemp- followed by some random characters and numbers. Open it and select and cut all files except a text file called files_to_update.
Paste and overwrite them now into the directory where your jaBuT Backup is installed.
You are done and up to date. I am sorry for that bug which caused this problems but it's fixed now.
