- performing cleanup operations (to erase incrementals) each week on Friday
- performing full backups in the last Saturday of the month
- performing cleanup operations (to erase differentials) in the last Saturday of the month

ReviewsReviews

"To be honest, I always say <<I'll burn that backup folder someday this week>> and the week passes without having my files backed up.

Reviews

With Backup4all this issue can disappear, and the stress related to <<what if my hard drive crashes>> problem will disappear. I think that I'll leave the backup tasks for this program from now on. What about you?"
