I have a 1T USB external drive that I want to use as a backup drive.
I have been able to make a "complete Backup" of my computer.... which is
swell. I replace it when I add hardware or new programs.
But the questions I have are:
1) I know I can schedule backups of documents photos etc. But it is my
understanding that even if checking "additional files" will not cause a copy
..exe files. I have a directory of downloaded files and programs I want
included in a nightly backup. It contains .dll, ,exe, .zip and other misc
files. How can I direct the nightly backup program to also backup that
directory?
2) I do want to preserve work I have done each day... but really only need
an incremental backup to get copies of files I have changed or created
during the day. I have not seen an option for this in Ultimate. Am I
missing something?
3) All HD's get full some time :-( using the existing Windows backup
program, can I just delete the oldest version of the daily backup (Not an
incremental one)?
Is there a workaround or fix for my problem?
