BackupsCobian Backup 9 keeps the history of all your tasks backup on a database. You can see them on the Backup history list on the user interface. You can always restore your files manually by copying/unzipping the backup files into the original destination. If the files are encrypted, use the Decrypting tool that is provided with the program to decrypt the files first. If your backup is set to NOT overwrite existing backups, every new backup will create a new file or directory with the same name, but with the date and time of the backup as a complement. For example: If the original file is SimCity.exe, and the backup is set to "Create new backups with timestamps", every new backup will create: SimCity.exe Now it's easy to maintain a limited number of copies of every backup and delete the old ones. On the task options you can set that you want, for example, maintain only 2 copies of the backup. The older backups will be deleted then. You can always PARK a backup to prevent it from being deleted. This is specially important for incremental backups when the first backup will usually be full and the next backup only partial. |
