backup crippled

You have made backup easier for the masses. You have made backup impossible
for people who have been using your backup utilities for years.

The new backup program does not even allow you to choose which files are
backed up.

This is not a help. There should AT LEAST be an option to use the old
backup program.

Please do not dumb down your OS any more if you cannot maintain the features
that power users need. If we want a dumbed down OS, we can always switch to
a Mac.

RE: backup crippled

I totally agree. This really ticks me off that I cant select the specific
folders and files I want. I DONT WANT TO DO THIS BY FILE TYPE!!!!! Egads,
when are the M$'ers gonna figure this out?
