What you back up is up to you, although none of our products are designed to make a complete backup of a system disk (Help > Quick Start > Understanding Backup and Synchronization - and reprised...

It's not 'intended' as such, just 'goes with the territory'. Bear in mind the signal from the Windows API involved is used purely as a trigger (there's no 'which file was it' evaluation). Plus, who's...
View ArticleVersioning by DataTime Folder
Hello. When using the versioning feature, is it possible to replicate the folder structure, including the date and time of the main folder? For example, can syncback create a folder called [DateTime],...

Hello. Does syncback offer control over the the number of threads that are used to process a backup job? For example, can I schedule 10+ jobs to run in parallel or do they run sequentially? Thanks.

Thank you for your reply! I figured that there was no way around the rescan, and now it makes sense that there shouldn't be.

Each profile runs in its own thread. You can run profiles in parallel, but it's not generally recommended, as they will usually be contending for something, e.g. disk access, network bandwidth, USB...
View ArticleRe: SyncBackPro Default Backup Type
Assuming you mean 'Incremental' and/or 'Differential' as defined here, neither, really. We don't have a specialist term (apart from maybe 'default'). It simply compares two sides and proposes to...

That seems to have fixed it. With that new version I was able to import and export with no errors. I am using Win7 Pro 64bit by the way.I also noticed that upon opening the program, several folders are...

Hi, yes I agree it should not create those folders when it's portable. But for the export folder choice, that's actually Windows remembering, not SyncBack.Edit: Actually, looking at the code, it will...
View ArticleRe: Windows 8 loops on interrupts caused by SyncBack
HiNot 100% sure what is happening for you, but SyncBackFree (like SE & Pro) contains no low-level code, and does not address hardware (or drivers) directly, only via Windows API calls. We thus have...
