Backup To DVD/CD 5.1.236
Backup To DVD , and its cousin Backup Made Simple, are powerful and easy to use tools to make reliable backups of your computer.
That’s nice, you say. Dozens of companies say the same thing. Lots of programs are perfectly competent at making a reliable backup. What makes our backup programs different?
This is an excellent question. Backup To DVD does all the things any decent backup program does, described in detail on our features page. What sets us apart is a number of innovative features you won’t find elsewhere:
* Backups Readable From Windows Explorer
You can make backups that are readable directly from Windows Explorer, or the “Open File” option in your favorite program! Very convenient to quickly check something on a backup. This also lets you use backups to copy files to different computers, without installing the backup software everywhere.
* Adapts Automatically When You Reorganize Folders and Files
Backup To DVD adapts automatically when you add, rename, move or delete folders and files on your hard drive. This means you don’t have to remember to fix your backup after reorganizing or adding things on your hard drive!
* Very Flexible Folder and File Selection
Most backup programs have only basic point-and-click selection to pick what to back up. We also have wildcard name matching, include and exclude filtering, specification inheritance by subfolders, and several Wizard-based searches to find the data you need to back up.
* Re-Check Old Backups For Reliability
Most backup programs give you only one chance to verify that your backup is actually usable – when you make it. Too bad if you discover a year later it’s useless. Maybe you bought a new DVD drive and it won’t read the backup disc, or your kid scratched the media. Our software lets you re-check an old backup whenever you like, so you know it will work when you need it.
* Backup AND Synchronize
Unlike our competitors, Backup To DVD is actually two programs in one: It’s a traditional backup program, and it’s also a folder/file synchronization program. Synchronization reconciles folders on two computers that should have identical copies of the same files, and automatically updates old or missing files in either location. This lets you work on the same files on different computers, using synchronization to copy your work around as needed without you having to remember which files you modified where.
* Customer Service
Sometimes getting knowledgeable and timely help is what you really need. We understand this, and we deliver. Really. This isn’t just us saying this – check out our amazing customer testimonials!
Flexible and Easy To Use
Both of our programs contain a comprehensive set of features to let you make backups the way you want, and are easy to set up and use even for non-technical users. In no time at all you’ll be making a backup of the important information on your computer, confident that everything you need is protected.
The software has a number of features designed specifically with flexibility and ease of use in mind.
* Backup and Synchronize
Our software can make a traditional backup, and it can also synchronize folders and files with copies on another hard drive or another computer. Sychronization is a good alternative to a regular backup when your goal is to keep a second copy of important files, or move files between computers so you can work on either one.
* Backup Plan Wizard
Our Backup Plan Wizard will help you find everything on your computer you need to back up, even if you don’t know where it is. If you know where something is you can just browse your hard drive and select it with our Windows Explorer-like user interface as well.
* Backup Plans Remember What To Do
Once you’ve figured out what to back up and configured the software to do this, your instructions are saved as a “Backup Plan”. The next time you want to make the same backup, just choose your plan from the list of saved plans. No more trying to remember what you did the last time.
* Keep Backups Small By Only Saving Recently Changed Files
A total backup of a large hard drive may require many backup discs. You should invest the effort to do this once in a while, but why waste all that time and all those backup discs every time when most of the files on your computer never change? Our software will let you back up only those files that have changed, so in most cases your regular backups will fit on a single disc.
* Adapts Automatically When Folders Change
With most backup software you have to remember to reconfigure your backup program in some way if you add or rename folders or files and you want to back them up. Not with ours. Our software automatically includes and new subfolders and files if the folder they were added to was already included in the backup. And the software automatically recognizes when a folder or file is renamed.
Of course, this is just the very beginning of what the software can do!
Screen Shots of Various Windows Here is the main window in Backup To CD-RW and Backup Made Simple. All features of the program are available within a few clicks of this window. Just click “Make Backup” to start your first backup. The first time you create a backup the software will start the Backup Plan Wizard to help you tell it exactly what you want to back up, and save this information in a “backup plan”. You can create as many backup plans as you like.
Here is the main window of the Backup Plan Wizard.
Here is the window that appears when you click “Let Me Pick From a List…” in the Backup Plan Wizard.
Here is the folder selection window for creating a backup plan, where you tell the software which folders you want to back up, and which you don’t. You will see this window if you edit an existing backup plan, or choose the option in the Backup Plan Wizard to select folders and files yourself. The “traffic light” symbols indicate your choice – “green light” means back it up, “red light” means don’t. For both of these, the choice can be overridden in subfolders by putting a different traffic light in the subfolder. The “do not enter” symbol is the same as a “red light”, but cannot be overridden in subfolders. Bold face is used for folder names which will be backed up.
When you start a backup the software displays this window, where you tell it which backup plan to use and which drive letter to write the backup to.
Here is the “Start Backup” dialog, which appears after the “Select Backup Plan and Destination” window shown above. This is where you give last minute instructions about how to make the backup, such as whether to backup everything specified by the backup plan or just the recently modified files.
