Selecting Backup Sets

The Lenovo Online Data Backup backup sets allow you to customize your backups by file type. Each time a new file
of a type you have selected for backup is saved to your computer, Lenovo Online Data Backup automatically selects
that file for all subsequent backups.

For example, if you want to back up all the Microsoft Word, OpenOffice.org, WordPerfect, Adobe Acrobat, and text
files on your computer, select the check box next to the Word Processing Documents backup set. Lenovo Online Data
Backup then finds those types of documents and backs them up automatically. All subsequent files saved to your
computer with the same file extensions are automatically added to your backups.
