- ArchivePro 2000 is a powerful archiving utility giving powerful
- effective control over the archiving and recall of any sort of data
- and is an ideal accompaniment to removable writable media such as
- ZIP drive, CDRs, JAZ drives etc. It can run standalone on a single
- PC or at the heart of a complete office or organisation wide data
- management strategy across a LAN, WAN or even the Internet.
-
- ArchivePro allows you to take files or groups of files and store
- them (either deleting or retaining the originals) on an "archive
- device", probably a Zip Disk or a CD Writer or reserved area of a
- Hard Drive or something similar. It will compress the files and keep
- track of them, and you can search for them and recall them at any
- time. The archive device doesn't have to be on your PC, although it
- can be. It can be a device on another PC on your local area network,
- or even on a system on the other side of the world connected via a
- wide-area network or even the Internet. Multiple PCs (the "clients")
- can all use the same archive device, which is connected to a single
- PC ("the server"). Or a PC ("the client") can use multiple different
- PCs ("servers") for different purposes, archiving some data to one
- place, other data elsewhere.
-
- As well as archiving files you can also archive "Disk Images". You can
- take a floppy disk, even a bootable one, and archive it on an archive
- server. Then at any time, from any client (security permissions that
- you set allowing), you can recreate the disk. Great for DOS boot disks,
- driver disks etc.
-
- There are extensions to the Windows Explorer context menu to make
- archiving files an extremely simple process, simply select the file or
- group of files/directories you want, right-click and select the new
- Archive command.
-
- Regular archive requirements can be met by the definition of ArchivePro
- "Jobs" - shortcuts that start the Archive Process with a predetermined
- specification of the files to be archived. These shortcuts can be put
- on the Windows desktop for instant access, and can be scheduled by any
- appropriate scheduling package (System Agent for example).

- versions of code; Support technicians, to archive drivers, installation
- disks etc.; Hobby users, to manage and keep track of downloaded software;
