General Computers - Backing Up Only One Folder

SUMMARY: You don't have to own high-end software programs to perform software backups.

Since backing up specific files is a chore that most put off until an ample number of files are ready to be stored, create a specific folder for items to be backed up. That way, while you are using your computer, if you see a folder that needs or can be stored on a backup, just drag and drop that folder underneath your pre-made backup folder.

I personally use the name 'Transport." Anything underneath "Transport" will be backed up and moved off-line when I next perform my individual file backups.
