Click on the Full backup tab if you
wish to perform a full backup. This backs up all
selected files, even those that have not changed
since the last backup.
A full backup is the simplest type of
backup, but it takes up more time and storage space
than the others. We recommend this type of backup for
novice users, since it is foolproof and makes sure
that all data is backed up.
Option: Execute only if new/changed
files available
Enable this checkbox, if you want
to ensure that a full backup is only performed if
at least one of the files has been changed since
the last backup. If there have been no changes in
any of the files, no backup will take place.
Note: This option does not take effect if combined execution has been activated!
In addition to a full backup, BackUp
Maker also provides a partial backup. This type backs
up only some of the selected files. Depending on the
setting you have chosen, they will be the files that
have changed since the last full backup, since the
last partial backup, since a particular date or
within a particular period.
Option: Since last full backup
Enable this option if you want to
back up only those files which have changed since
the last full backup. This also includes any
files that were newly created since that time.
Option: Since last partial backup
Enable this option if you want to
back up only those files which have been modified
since the last partial backup or which were
created since that time.
Option: Since dd.mm.yyyy
Enable this option if you wish to
back up files only which were changed or newly
created since that particular date.
Option: Within the last dd days
Enable this option if you wish to
back up files only which were changed or newly
created within the time range indicated, where
"dd" is a placeholder for the number of
days.
Note:
Since last full backup / Since last partial backup
Note that with either of these
options, the first backup is always a full
backup. Subsequent partial backups then use this
initial full backup as their starting point.
