HAT IF THERE IS MORE THAN ONE USER ON MY COMPUTER

?

This matters only if each user has a separate user login name for the computer. If every
user logs in with the same user name, all of their content is backed up and restored at
the same time regardless of who is logged in.

When

Clickfree

runs, it can only back up the content that you can access from your

login, and restore content to locations you have access to. Because

Windows 2000

,

Windows XP

and

Windows Vista

maintain a separate

Documents

or

My Documents

folder for each user name,

Clickfree

can back up only the corresponding content that

belong to the person who is logged in, unless that person logs in as Administrator.

Administrator

“Administrator” is a special login name for the user who can make system-wide changes
to the computer, has full control, and can access all of the files on the computer. Most
home users are automatically the Administrator of their computer. If you don’t know if
you are the Administrator, or how to log in as Administrator, you might need to talk to
the person who set up the computer for you. If no one set up your computer for you,
then by default, you are the Administrator.

C2N Home Backup Drive can be used to back up as many computers as you

like.

Note:

Each CD or DVD is used for only one backup. Once a backup is finished you
cannot record anything else on the disk.

Clickfree

creates a unique identifier for each computer that it is used with, regardless of

the computer’s name. This allows

Clickfree

to back up content for more than one

computer without the files getting mixed up with each other, even if all of the computers
have the same name.

You can change the name of a computer after backup to make it easier to remember
which computer is which.

You change a computer’s name from the
