Backup pro is an application

A)Select Backup Job: select a backup job in the list to manage from ‘current jobs’ .

B)Manual Backup Job Type: Select the backup job type .There are two different type of backup

1)first is the Non versioned type which stores backup in ZIP format

2)The second type is the versioned backup which stores different versions of the backup in a single file.

C)This format we will refer to as the BUPZ format.

D)Run Backup/Update: Clicking on this button will backup the job in the Selected backup format ZIP/BUPZ.

1)For ZIP format a time stamped backup file will be created in ZIP format in the job directory.

The name of the ZIP file will be “jobname”_timestamp+.ZIP.

2)For BUPZ format a new version of the backup will be created.

The job file in the job directory with name “jobname”.BUPZ will be created or updated.The job file has

all the versions of your job within it.

E)The three options below are to edit your job.

AddNewFiles: Clicking here one can add new files to the latest version of the job.

RemoveFiles: clicking here one can remove files from the job.

Files can be removed from the current version or from all versions.

To remove files that have been accidentally added choose the remove permanently option,the file

will be removed from all versions of the backup, Otherwise choose to remove file from this version onwards.

It is allways possible to add a file that has been removed in a new version

Undo Add/Rem Files: Click here to undo the changes(also called edits) made to the job.

If you have added or removed files those changes will be undone.

F)Rebase Job: Once the user has created many versions of a job he may like to rebase the job.

Rebasing will create a new job with latest version files of selected job as the base for a new job.,

The user can continue backing up the future versions of his project on this new job.

A good guideline of when to rebase would be if the backup size is greater than 150MB or when no of versions is greater than 40

whichever comes first.

G)Change Job Or Mirror Directory: This option allows the user to change the job backup and mirror directories

H)Remove Job: This option will remove a job entry from backuppro. If you select Yes when prompted it removes the backup also.

So be careful when you select this. If you accidentally selected to delete backup go to a folder called

C:\ProgramFiles (x86)\backuppro1\appdata\BackupRecycle and find your deleted file there.

Removing a backup doesn’t affect your sources in any way.

I)Copy Backup User can copy the backup files of the job (.BUPZ and .ZIP) files to any chosen location

J)The Progress of Backup window shows the user the status of the current operation.

Please wait for the concluding message to appear in this window.before trying a new operation.

TIPS: use the copy backup tool to copy your backup to pendrive or to your onedrive folder.
