D_back 1.51 is out
D_back 1.51 is a very likely candidate to hold the title “World’s most straightforward backup utility”. After a person selects the most critical data to have a reserve copy of, the program will create backups automatically on a daily basis (though other time increments may be selected). No complicated setup or overwhelming options.
D_back 1.51 can place a reserve copy onto any type of media - hard-drive, network drive, removable drive, CD or DVD, floppy, file server (via FTP). If a user does not know what FTP is, backed up data may be e-mailed. It has a built-in dial up option for users with a modem.
The backup file format is ZIP, though, if other compression agents are installed, they can be used as well. Naturally, a demanding user will find more backup options after closely investigating the program, but the main advantage of D_back 1.51 is that it can be configured once and forgotten about after that. The program will quietly continue doing what it’s supposed to do without prompting any actions by the user.
