Thanks, Tim, I will look into that product. However, what a shame!
Microsoft inevitable shoots themselves in the foot and forces users to third
party products. The old backup was basic, but pretty decent. Using this
little gem, it appears that I can't even do a quick backup of a critical
project folder nor can I make a backup of several folders to a device that
doesn't have enough room to backup all folders. What a cryin' shame.
