Can Backup Wolf back up to CD's ? |
|
Yes, but you need to have packet writing direct
access software installed to allow Backup Wolf to write directly to your CD drive. An example of direct
access software is Roxio's DirectCD. Most CD-RW drives include this
type of software.

|
Does backup Wolf compress the backed up files
? |
|
No, Backup Wolf creates a "mirror image" without any
compression algorithms being used. This allows you to easily recover your data manually if
necessary from the backup location. Backup Wolf includes a Restore option, but if this for any reason
fails you then have the option of manually copying the saved data back to it's original location.

|
How do I get upgrades ?
|
|
Backup Wolf includes an "auto update" menu option
that checks for availability of any new versions of the software and automatically downloads the update. |
| |
|
What happens if I lose my backup profile data
files ?
|
|
This is another advantage of Backup Wolf's mirror
image and non compression design which allows you to easily recover your backed up data by simply Copying
and Pasting the files and folders back to their original locations from the backup location if necessary. |
| |
|
Does an Incremental backup also backup new
files in the folder that's selected for a backup?
|
|
Yes! Backup Wolf's incremental
backup option checks each and every file in every folder and
sub folder selected in the backup profile that you create, and then
compares the file date and file size from the file in
the *Source* location to the file in the *Target* location
and then only updates each file if it's changed. Backup Wolf also
looks for any new files and backs the new files up to the
*Target* location. Any sub folders in the folder that you
have selected in the backup profile are searched and
updated automatically. The incremental option is often stunningly fast for maintaining your backup's since it only
copies files that have changed or new files to the *Target*
location. |

What should I do to maintain previous backups
?
|
|
Simply use Backup Wolf's Incremental backup option and you
will never have to worry about your data! |
| |
|
What if my hard drive crashes ? Can I still
restore the data from the backup ? |
|
Yes! You can recover the data using Backup
Wolf's Restore option which will copy the data back to it's *Source* (original) location from the *Target*
(backup) location that you specified in your backup profile. If all else fails, you can also do it manually by
simply copying and pasting the uncompressed backup data back to the *Source* location very easily. |
