Source path

Enter the path of the directory/folder containing the files you want copied.

You can also use relative pathnames like '..' or '.'.

Destination path

Enter the path where you want your backup file to be stored.

Date format

A date will be attached to each backup. Chose the format of the date here.

After the backup

Decide here if you want BackupXpress to take any action after the backup. For example shutting down Windows.

Autostart

Start your projects automatically without double clicking the project.

Log all copied files

Keep track of all backups in a logbook.

Don't show any errors

This option disables error messages during a backup. This is only suggested if you exactly know that you'll receive error messages and they can be ignored.

Overwrite protected files

Write protected files will be ignored during the backup. If you know that there are write protected files in your backup which need to be saved, we suggest to check this setting.

Autosave

After you've created a new backup project and you close BackupXpress, the project will be saved automatically.

Set write protection after copying

If your backup includes sensible files you need to write protect, you can do so here automatically after the backup.

Use date of the youngest file

Every backup receives a date stamp. If you check this option, the date stamp will be the date of the youngest file included.

Warn if disc space is below 10%

You'll be warned if the disc space of the destination path is below 10%
