LICKFREE DOES BACKUPS

?

You can decide whether

Clickfree

backs up complete folders, or backs up content by

category (for example, Office Documents). The default is to back up your complete Home
folder.

If you choose to back up content by category, you can choose:

• The categories of content

Clickfree

backs up

• Where

Clickfree

looks for this content

Note:

Changes you make to how

Clickfree

does backups are “sticky”: they are stored

and applied again to later backups for this user unless you modify them.

To review or change what gets backed up:

1. Follow steps 1 to 4 of the procedure “How do I start using my Clickfree Backup

Drive?” on page 9.
