Automatic Backup using Windows 7

[PIGLEE]

I use Karen's Replicator to backup to a portable hard drive. It is a free download, and you can schedule it. http://www.karenware.com/powertools/powertools.asp

Then I use I-Drive backup as my fire insurance.

How lovely of you to bring this to our attention- thanks!

I just discovered that Windows 7 has a backup procedure which will automatically backup selected files or directories to a CD or DVD or flashdrive. To access this feature click upon START and ALL PROGRAMS at the bottom and then click upon MAINTENANCE near the bottom on the second page.Then click upon BACKUP and Restore. It backs up all selected files or directories immediately or at a time you select to a directory named: restore. I have been using Second Copy software for years which only cost $29.95 and it works well and is easier to use.
