The threat of lost or corrupted files is ever-present, such as virus attack or abnormal deletion, so keeping data safe is a top priority for our digital lives. It is a good habit to back up important data, which can reduce the loss of data to us, whether it is economic loss or other losses, the best choice is to prevent it before it happens.
If you are aware of the importance of data backup and plan to back up your important files, you have two options, backup the entire drive where your important files are stored or just those files. If you want to back up an entire drive, you're better off using disk/partition backup, and if you want to back up only specified files, you're better off using file backup. This tutorial focuses on backing up specified files(folders) using file backup.
If we frequently make changes to important files that have already been backed up, we should re-do the backup after changing the files, however we may forget to perform the backup operation, which puts the data at risk, and setting up a backup schedule to automatically back up the files(folders) can effectively solve the problem.
In order to be able to automatically back up data, most backup software on the market provides a feature called backup scheduling, which periodically runs the backup task according to the settings of the backup scheduling. If you are looking for a free backup software that supports backup scheduling to back up your important files(folders) on a regular basis, we recommend you to try Hasleo Backup Suite Free.
