Configuring the Software
The BounceBack Express software can be configured to create custom backup data sets.
BounceBack Express Software
The BounceBack Express software gives you complete control over the data you choose to
back up. Use BounceBack Express to:
•
Select files and directories to back up, or exclude them from a backup.
•
Change the drive letters for the external HDD.
•
Set backup reminders and view a backup log.
•
Create backup sets (files, directories, or folders) for scheduled backups.
•
Restore lost or altered files easily to their original or alternate locations.
After the initial installation and complete backup, each time you connect your backup drive,
BounceBack Express scans your system disk for any new files or modified ones, and
automatically backs them up to the external HDD.
Configuring BounceBack Express
BounceBack Express Launcher
Each time you connect the external HDD to the server, the BounceBack Express Launcher
automatically starts a backup. The BounceBack Express Launcher will also:
•
Detect the external HDD when you connect it to your system and automatically back up
any modified or new data.
•
Enable or disable the automatic backup feature upon power up of your system.
•
Start a backup manually.
•
Start a backup with the compare feature, which displays for you the changed or altered
files before backing them up.
Launch programs included with the BounceBack Express software (BounceBack Express
Settings, and so on).
