and destination along with a mapping, a pattern to include, and a pattern and folders to
exclude. You can determine file set differences through the date, time, and size of the source
and destination files, or by checking the source file's archive attributes. With BASK's 19 file
set operations, you can back up, restore, and delete files in a number of useful ways.

BackupLatest backs up the most recently modified files. After the initialization, it scans the
directories selected by the user and finds the files with the most recent time stamp. It then
saves them on the drive mirroring the tree structure of the source directories. The amount of
saved information can be set by the user, so one can for example save the most recent 1.4Mb of
documents to the floppy disk.

LeBackup32 Light lets you save your files after they have been modified. It allows you to

No Hands Backup 1.2 Beta 2 Updated!
Description
No Hands Backup is an easy to use backup application. After selecting
the source directories (the material you want to backup) NHB recreates
the original folder structure by copying new or changed files to the
backup, and by deleting files and folders from the backup that have
been deleted in the source directory. In that way, an exact dublicate
of your selected folders and files are created somewhere else, i.e.
the file system on the destination will be an exact image of the
original one. When run again, only changed files are updated. Perfect
to use with CeQuadrat PacketCD.

modified files. This means that if you create a new document it will
automatically be backed up once you run BackupLatest without the
necessity of adding your new file to a list of files that need to be
backed up. You also do not need to worry about the capacity of your
backup media. Even if you are backing up just to a 3.5-inch diskette
you can be assured that 1.44 Mb of your most recent files will be
backed up.

UPDATE2 (by Profiles Software)
What is UPDATE2:
UPDATE2 is a maintenance tool, for the updating of files between different
computers, or on the same computer between different folders and their
subfolders.
UPDATE2 was designed with the developer and the site administrator in mind.
Who needs UPDATE2:
UPDATE2 is typically used in situations such as the following:
· Your accounting data files are on your server, and you want to copy them
daily onto the local hard disk of your station, as an additional backup.
Moreover, on Tuesdays, files get copied to your C:\BACKDATA\TUE\ folder,
and so on.
· You want to keep a copy of all your Word documents, letters and offers,
on your removable drive (Zip, Jazz, Syquest, etc), which you use to
refresh your home copy of these documents. Symmetrically, any document
modified or created at home must be transferred the same way back to
the office. You want this to be done without having to copy all your
files every time, but only those that have been changed.
