Backup4all - Knowledge base / FAQs / Using Backup4all /


I have used Backup4all for some time now and I have a large number of zip files in the destination. How can I clear them and start over again?

Open the Backup Properties window for the backup job. Go to Advanced page, check Run program/action before backup and choose <Clear backup> from the combo. This will delete the backup files in the destination before the execution of the backup job. If you check the Run only once option, the <Clear backup> action will be executed only once (at next backup execution) and after that it will be disabled. The <Clear backup> action has parameters to further customize its functionality.

"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?"
