[QUOTE="Artist 2004, post: 239742, member: 177270"] I'm just experimenting with this and am very impressed. After doing a full back up of whatever set of folders you decide to include, you can then choose to update just the changes at intervals of minutes, hours or days, whatever you want. For example, I set an interval of two hours. The update takes one or two minutes in the background and you don't know it's happened. So I'm never more than two hours without a full backup. You can choose to compress if you want, which saves copies as zip files. However, I found that if your filenames or folders contain non-english characters the compression option is unusable. Otherwise brilliant. For my C-drive (Windows and Programs only) I make an occasional drive image using Acronis True Image. This allows you to go back to a clean version of your system, without viruses, corrupted operating system, damaged drivers etc, in minutes. [/QUOTE]
