Using the ABE to back up a stand-alone computer

Being a full-featured backup software, the ABE remains a rather simple tool.

All you need to get your files protected is create a new backup-project:

and answer the questions of the New Project Wizard:

1. A name for you project;
2. Which files to include and to exclude (see our suggestions on files to include);
3. Where to place backups (see our suggestions on the folder to store backups);
4. When to perform automated backups (see our suggestions on the schedule);
5. Optional settings you may want to make - default settings must do well for a stand-alone computer.

After you pressed the Finish button, the ABE offers you to create a desktop shortcut to run backups of the selected files.

That's all. Just click the shortcut you created to run the backup:

or wait for the scheduled time to come.

To study to work with the ABE in detail please install the 30-days trial version of the ABE(2Mb) and read the Tutorial and the Backup Strategy sections of the help.
