You need to edit the bbackupd.conf file. Set the following parameters:

AutomaticBackup = no
UpdateStoreInterval = 0
MinimumFileAge = 0
MaxUploadWait = 0   

Also, you need to then use bbackupctl to start a sync. On Unix, setting
up a cron-job is the way to do this. I assume that using 'Scheduled
Tasks' on Windows will work there (haven't tried it).

No changes to the certs are needed. Your account information doesn't change.

HTH,
