Tip: You can add to the list of file extensions included in any
file category by using the controls on the Backup options
panel. See “Back up files options” on page 21 for more
information.
Creating a custom category
Most computer files are defined by the two-, three-, or
four-letter extension placed at the end of their names. Plain
text files, for example, can be identified by their .txt file
extension. When you record a Back Up Files project, the
program is simply searching your computer for files with
extensions that correspond to the categories you selected.
But what if you want to archive files that aren’t included on
any of the pre-defined lists? You could choose to archive all
files or edit one of the existing categories (see “Back up files
options” on page 21 for more information), or you could
create your own custom list of file extensions that will appear
as the category called My Custom Category.
