Making backup copies on a CD or DVD

 

Once you have enabled the backup copies, these will be made periodically in the directory that you've selected. If you have not selected any, they will be saved to the default directory. To prevent backup copies from occupying too much space, there is an expiry date (30 days by default) after which the program will eliminate the copies from your hard disk. For more information, refer to the Expiry and location of backup copies section.

 

You can save the copies on a CD or DVD whenever you want.
 

When you save the backup copies to a CD or DVD, the wizard will ask you for as many disks as are necessary to save the data. Make sure you have enough disks before starting the process. It is advisable to use DVD disks to save backup copies, as they have greater storage capacity.

Follow these steps in order to save backup copies to a CD or DVD:

  1. Click Backup in the main window of the program.

  2. Click Save to CD/DVD on the left of the window.

  3. Select the backup copy you want to save to a CD or DVD and click Save.

  4. A window will appear asking you to insert a disk in the CD or DVD burner drive. Before you do this, write the name that the message suggests on the disk so that you can identify it later. Click OK.

  5. When you have recorded all the disks necessary, you will see a message indicating that the process has finished successfully.
