[QUOTE="AtlBo, post: 639900, member: 32547"] [USER=47679]@TheMalwareMaster[/USER] any time a new file is created the program backs up the file. But it's messy. It saves a changed file too but as an additional file. This is apparently how it protects. If ransomware runs, you have the ransomware copy and the original copy in the backed up files area. Another messy element of the program is that it saves new files from everywhere on the C disk including userspace areas and program areas. At least it does back up files on remote drives. Wish there was at least a sort element for the header of the backed up files list. In all the temp files and logs it's hard to find normal doc folder files. One thing about this program that I just now realized. It has a setting for deciding how long to keep each backup file. The default is 30 days see pic so maybe this is how the program keeps down disk usage somehow? I guess this is now a question for me. Maybe it checks to see if there is a more recent version of a file before auto-deleting after 30 days I don't know. [/QUOTE]
