Introducing the Clickfree C6  
HOW IT WORKS  
The Clickfree C6 backup drive is the easiest way to protect the data on your computers, with  
no effort at all, by automatically searching for and backing up onto its built-in hard disk all  
the content stored on each computer. No hardware configuration or software installation is  
required.  
The Clickfree C6 is the only external hard-drive in the Clickfree product lineup that backs  
up the computer's entire contents including the Windows operating system, installed  
software programs, as well as all personal content stored on the computer's hard-drives.  
The Clickfree C6 also comes with a unique feature called EASY Fix. The EASY Fix is a suite  
of tools that allow the user to perform:  
Emergency Backup/Recovery - Recover personal files even after Windows has  
crashed and will not restart.  
Repair/Reset – Easily repair your computer including your Windows operating  
system and software programs from a previous backup, without affecting your  
personal files. See details in "Repairing your computer" on Page 16.  
Reimage - In the case of a computer hard drive failure, easily reimage everything  
onto your computer's new hard drive. See details in "Re-Imaging your computer" on  
page 17.  
Clickfree EASY Fix is NOT designed to transfer your Windows Operating System and  
Software Applications (system files) from one computer to another. Instead, it is designed to  
help restore your system files from a backup to the same computer in case of OS/software  
problems or a hard drive failure.  
When using the Re-image option in Clickfree EASY Fix, unless you are an advanced user  
please only use it on the same computer that you backed up. ( i.e. you are re-imaging onto the  
same computer or to a replacement hard drive installed on the same computer )  
The first time you connect a C6 to your computer it searches for and backs up all of your  
important content as well as the Windows operating system and your software applications.  
The C6 can be connected to any number of computers to allow them to also be backed up.  
When Clickfree has finished backing up each computer, you can disconnect the C6 and  
connect it to a different computer, or leave the C6 connected to the computer to easily  
update your backup in the future (you can also schedule a backup automatically -- see  
“How to schedule automatic backups” on page 19).  
Please note that the limit is on the available space on the Clickfree C6 and not on the  
number of PCs that can be backed up.  
It is also possible to back up to CDs or DVDs instead of using the built-in hard disk; see  
“How do I back up onto CDs or DVDs?(EASY Archiver)” on page 23.

Introducing the Clickfree C6  
DEFINITIONS  
Backup and Restore  
A backup is a copy of data on your computer. Backups can be used to restore data after loss  
of or damage to your computer’s hard disk, to restore files that have been accidentally  
deleted or corrupted, or to move or copy data from one computer to another.  
Making a backup of your content only copies it from your computer to your C6, and does  
not delete it from the computer’s hard disk.  
Similarly, when you restore content, it only copies it from your C6 to your computer, and  
does not delete it from the C6.  
A backup is meant to be a second copy of your computer data,  
not the only copy of your data.  
Content  
Clickfree C6 backs up your Windows operating system and software applications (system  
files), as well as data that you have created, such as music, photos, letters, emails, tax  
information etc. In this guide we refer to the data that you created as content. This is an  
important distinction because the normal Restore function (described on page 10) only  
restores your content. If you need to “restore” your operating system and software  
applications, you must use the EASY Fix function (see page 14).  
WHAT GETS BACKED UP?  
When it runs automatically, Clickfree backs up everything on your computer:  
Photos – including common graphic formats such as JPEG and RAW  
Music – including CD audio, MP3, MIDI  
Video – e.g. AVI, MPEG, Shockwave Flash  
Emails – including Microsoft Outlook, Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird, Eudora  
Documents – e.g. from Microsoft Word, Open Office, and WordPerfect  
Spreadsheets – e.g. Microsoft Excel, Open Office, and Lotus 123  
Presentations – e.g. Microsoft Powerpoint and Corel Show  
Illustrations – such as Corel Draw, Visio, Photoshop and Paintshop images  
Financial – such as those from Quicken, QuickBooks and tax programs  
Windows and Programs – operating system and software applications  
All Others – including, but not limited to, zip and RAR files, XML, and CSV files  
The first time you back up your computer, C6 backs up all of the content it finds, as well as  
the operating system and software applications, which might take several hours. Each time  
you use Clickfree after that, it only backs up the new or changed files, so it will be much  
faster. Any files that were deleted from your computer since the last backup are not  
deleted from the C6.

FEATURES  
Customizable backup options to exclude folders; remembers your customized  
settings for each computer you use it with.  
Multi-computer backup -- can hold the backups for as many computers as you like,  
limited only by the available space on the C6.  
Multi-version backup – the first backup is a full backup, while each subsequent  
backup is incremental (i.e. only new/modified files will be backed up). – you can  
select which version to view or restore.  
EASY Restore - easily restore to same or other computer -- a great way to move your  
content from your old computer to your new one.  
EASY Imaging - full computer imaging -- because the C6 backs up your Windows  
operating system and software applications, you can easily recover from a hardware  
crash.  
EASY Viewer -- conveniently view backed-up photos in thumbnail and expanded  
view. View all other files as easily as if it is on the original computer  
EASY Music - easily import music from your iPod/iPhone/iPad to your computer  
and to iTunes.  
EASY Fix – easily recover from computer crashes caused by viruses or software  
corruption – often within minutes !  
WHAT DO  
I
NEED BEFORE  
I
START?  
Your computer must be running one of these operating systems:  
Microsoft Windows 7 (any editions)  
Microsoft Windows Vista (any editions)  
Microsoft Windows XP (any editions)  
In addition you need:  
One free USB port (preferably USB 3.0, but compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1) on  
your computer

Backing Up  
Backing Up  
Even though Clickfree backs up your operating system and software applications, it is  
safe to continue working while the backup is running. However, keep in mind that  
the “snapshot” is created when backup starts and it can take some time to complete,  
so any files modified during the backup will not be included and you will need to run  
an incremental backup afterwards.  
1. Make sure that your computer is switched on and has finished starting up.  
2. If this is a Clickfree C6 Desktop version, connect the C6 power adapter to a wall outlet or  
power bar and the other end to the C6.  
3. Connect one end of the USB cable to the C6 and the other end to a USB port on your  
computer.  
4. When Clickfree starts to run, a Welcome window appears and shows the number of  
seconds left before the backup starts automatically:  
The Viewer and Restore/Transfer buttons appear at the bottom of the window after at  
least one backup exists on your C6.  
Unless you stop the countdown by clicking a button, at the end of the countdown period  
Clickfree starts the backup.  
If you want to let Clickfree decide what needs to be backed up from where, you  
don’t need to do anything further. For details, see “What gets backed up?” on page  
6.  
If you want to exclude one or more folders from the backup, click Options and see  
“How do I exclude folders from the backup ?” on page 19.

Backing Up  
5. During the backup, Clickfree displays a progress window.  
When you see the Backup Summary window after the backup is complete, simply click  
Close. You’re done!  
6. Disconnect the C6 and keep it in a safe place.  
Repeat these steps for each computer you want to back up.  
Set up an automatic backup schedule so you don’t have to worry about a thing. See “How  
to schedule automatic backups” on page 19

Restoring Content  
Restoring Content  
You can restore your content to any computer that meets the system requirements (see  
“What do I need before I start?” on page 7), not just to the computer the content was backed  
up from.  
To restore files from more than one computer, simply repeat the restore process and choose  
a different computer each time.  
WHAT GETS RESTORED, AND TO WHERE?  
The Restore function only restores your content (data you created). If you need to  
“reimage” your operating system and software applications, use the EASY Fix  
function (see page 14).  
You can choose whether to restore all or just selected content, and where the content is  
restored to – or you can allow Clickfree to make the choices for you.  
If you don’t change any options, Clickfree restores all of the content that was backed up,  
and puts it in the same folders on your computer that it was backed up from.  
If you are restoring over files of the same name, Clickfree overwrites these files on the  
computer with the ones on the C6. Alternatively, you can restore your files to a different  
location on your computer so they don’t overwrite any existing files.  
RESTORE -- LET CLICKFREE DECIDE WHAT TO RESTORE AND TO WHERE  
1. Connect the C6 to your computer and wait for the Welcome window to appear.  
If you are restoring content to a new computer that has never been connected to the  
C6, plug the C6 in to your new computer.  
2. Before the countdown gets to zero, click Restore/Transfer  
.
3. The Restore window appears.  
Note that all of the categories that have backed-up content are checked in the Select  
Category column.  
4. Look at the computer name in the Restore From box:  
The drop-down list contains the names of all of the computers that have been backed up  
on your C6. Select the computer you wish to restore from. Clickfree will restore all  
categories selected from that computer’s most recent backup to the original locations.

Restoring Content  
5. Click Start Restore  
.
During a Restore, your content will be copied from the C6 to the computer and will  
not be deleted from your Clickfree backup: it is still safe on the C6.  
RESTORE -- CHANGE HOW CLICKFREE RESTORES CONTENT  
By making choices at several steps in the restore process you can control which content is  
restored and where it is restored to. You can also restore from an older backup instead of  
the most recent.  
1. Follow steps 1-3 from “Restore -- Let Clickfree decide what to restore and to where” on  
page 10.  
2. Click Switch to Advanced Restore. Select the computer whose content you want to  
restore to this computer, and the backup to be restored:  
3. All categories that contain files on the selected backup are selected. If there are any  
categories that you do not want to restore, click the check box to clear it. If the check box  
is not enabled, that means that there are no files for that category on the selected backup.  
When a category is selected or deselected, all of the file types that make up that  
category are also selected or deselected. To restore individual files within a  
category, click the category name and then select the files to be restored.  
To locate particular files to be restored, click Explorer View and select the files to be  
restored.  
4. When you are finished selecting files, click Next  
.
5. On the Select Location to Restore Files window, indicate where to restore the content.

restored.  
Your content will not be deleted from your Clickfree backup: it is still safe on the C6.  
HOW DO  
I
FIND FILES THAT WERE RESTORED?  
If Clickfree restored your files to a folder that was not their original location, Clickfree puts an  
icon on your Restore Summary page so that you can quickly and easily get to the restored  
content:  
Double-click the icon to open Windows Explorer to the folder where your content was  
restored. You can now use Explorer to move the files to a more convenient folder.  
MY PROGRAM CANNOT FIND THE RESTORED FILES  
WHAT SHOULD DO?  
I
Some programs expect to find their files in a particular folder. If you restore files to a folder  
other than the original location, your program may not be able to find them.  
If your program displays an error message telling you that it cannot find its files, or if the  
program starts up but your data is missing, you will need to move the files to the proper  
folder.  
Unfortunately, this is different for every application and you may need to consult the  
program’s online help or user guide to find out where the files need to be moved to.

Using EASY Fix to Recover from a Hardware Failure  
Using EASY Fix to Recover from a Hardware  
Failure  
EASY Fix is a suite of tools that allow you to perform:  
Emergency Backup/Recovery - Recover personal files even after Windows has  
crashed and will not restart.  
Repair/Reset – Easily repair your computer including your Windows operating  
system and software programs from a previous backup, without affecting your  
personal files.  
Reimage - In the case of a computer hard drive failure, easily reimage everything  
onto your computer's hard drive.  
EASY Fix is not part of the normal Windows software that you will see every day when you  
run Clickfree backups. In order to use Clickfree EASY Fix, you will need to restart your  
computer to boot from the C6.  
REBOOTING YOUR COMPUTER FROM THE C6  
1. Connect the C6 to your computer, then restart your computer. Look for a message at  
startup that indicates the key to press to change the Boot device order. Usually the  
startup screen is black and white and the message will have the keyword "Boot". F9, F12,  
or Esc are common keys, but each computer will be different.  
2. Press this key repeatedly until you get to the Boot Menu. You only have a short time to  
do this before Windows boots up -- if you reach the Windows startup screen, you must  
restart your computer by using the "Restart" option in the Shutdown Options.  
3. The Boot Menu will show a list of drives that can be used to boot up your computer. Use  
the arrow key to highlight the C6 (which may be listed as “Clickfree Backup Drive”,  
"CD/DVD ROM", “USB HDD”, or “USB CD-ROM”), then press Enter.  
4. The computer restarts and loads the Clickfree EASY Fix Welcome screen.

Clickfree C6 Easy Imaging  
Using EASY Fix to Recover from a Hardware Failure  
The Repair button appears at the bottom of the window only if a full backup for this  
computer exists on your C6.  
DOING AN EMERGENCY BACKUP/ RECOVERY  
Unless you have very recently done a normal backup onto the C6, we suggest that you  
perform an Emergency Backup/Recovery before performing a Repair or Re-Image to  
ensure that you have a current copy of all personal content on the computer.  
Unlike a regular backup, the Emergency Backup/Recovery only backs up content, not  
Windows operating system files or software applications. By default this includes all  
content on your computer; if you wish to exclude some folders, click Advanced instead  
and then click Settings to choose the folders to exclude.  
This emergency backup/recovery cannot be selected for Re-Image or Repair, but can be  
used during a normal content Restore (as described on page 10).  
After the emergency backup/recovery is complete:

If a previous full computer backup is available, you can click Start Repair (or click  
Advanced for more options).  
If no full computer backups are available on the C6, click Close Clickfree and unplug  
the C6. Your computer will restart. If you are later successful in repairing your  
computer by other means, you can use the normal Restore (as described on page 10)  
to restore your content.  
REPAIRING YOUR COMPUTER  
When you choose Repair, Clickfree will compare all of the system files on your computer to  
the system files in the most recent backup on the C6. System files from the backup will be  
copied back to the computer. Any personal content files that are on the backup but not on  
the computer will be restored to the computer.  
1. Reboot your computer from the C6 as described on page 14.  
If you’re not sure how recently your computer was backed up, follow the instructions  
in "Doing an emergency backup/ recovery to back up your content once more before  
"
you continue (see page 15).  
2. If you want to run the Repair using the most recent backup, click Repair on the EASY  
Fix Welcome screen. If you want to repair from an older backup, click Advanced on the  
EASY Fix Welcome screen and then click Repair/Reset. Choose the backup dates to be  
used and click Start Repair. Note that you cannot select an emergency backup.

screen, click Close Clickfree and unplug the C6. Your computer will restart as normal  
and load Windows.  
RE-IMAGING YOUR COMPUTER  
1. Reboot your computer from the C6 as described on page 14.  
If you’re not sure how recently your computer was backed up, follow the instructions  
in "Doing an emergency backup/ recovery" to back up your content once more before  
you continue (see page 15).  
1. Click Advanced on the EASY Fix Welcome screen. The date of the latest backup is  
shown. If you want to re-image from an older backup, select the backup dates to be  
used, then click Start Re-Image. Note that you cannot select an emergency backup.  
EVERYTHING on your computer’s internal hard drives will be erased and replaced  
with the system files, applications, and content in the selected backup – you must  
confirm that you want to continue.

REMOVING A COMPUTER  
If you no longer want to keep content backed up from a computer (for example, you may no  
longer have that computer, and have already restored its content to another computer), you  
can free up space on your C6 by removing the old computer and its backup from Clickfree.  
1. On the Manage Settings and PCs window, click the computer you want to remove.  
2. Click Remove PC. You are prompted to confirm that you want to remove it.  
Once you have removed a computer from Clickfree there is no way to recover that  
computer’s content from the C6.  
Clickfree may take several minutes to erase the data, depending on the amount of content  
backed up on the C6.  
RESETTING THE C6  
Master Reset is used to remove all backed-up content from all computers that have been  
backed up on your C6, and to apply factory settings.  
After you perform a Master Reset you can no longer restore any previously backed-up  
content, but your C6 can still be used for new backups.  
If you want to remove only the content that was backed up from one computer, see  
“Removing a Computer” on page 21.  
1. On the Tools window click Master Reset  
2. You are prompted to confirm that you want to remove all backed-up content from  
Clickfree – select the check box and click Reset  
.
.
Once you have removed content from Clickfree using Master Reset there is no way to  
recover any backed-up content from the C6.  
Clickfree may take several minutes to erase all of the content, depending on the amount of  
content backed up on the C6.

USING PASSWORD PROTECTION  
DO MY FILES NEED PASSWORD PROTECTION?  
If your C6 is lost or stolen, anyone with a computer that meets the hardware and software  
prerequisites can restore files from your C6 simply by connecting the C6 to their computer,  
unless the C6 is protected by a password.  
You should protect your files using a password if the content you have backed up is  
sensitive in any way and there is any possibility that the C6 could be lost or stolen.  
If you set a password, a scheduled backup is delayed until you enter the password.  
See “How to schedule automatic backups” on page 19 for more details.  
HOW DO ENABLE PASSWORD PROTECTION?  
I
1. In the Manage Settings and PCs window, click the Tools tab.  
2. Click Enable Password  
.
3. Type your password in both the New Password and Retype Password fields.  
Clickfree imposes no restrictions on the password, and treats upper-case and lower-  
case letters as identical. But you should pick a password that would be difficult for  
anyone else to discover and that you will be able to remember – if you forget your  
password there is no way to recover any backed-up content from the C6.  
4. Optionally set a hint that can be used to help you remember your password.  
Be sure to pick a hint that would be difficult for anyone else to interpret and that you  
will be able to remember – if you forget your password and cannot remember it using  
the hint there is no way to recover any backed-up content from the C6.  
5. Click OK  
.
CAN CHANGE OR REMOVE THE PASSWORD?  
I
To change your password, simply disable the password from the Options/ Tools window,  
then enable it again as described above.  
WHAT IF FORGET MY PASSWORD?  
I
If you have forgotten your password, and cannot remember it from the hint you set when  
you enabled password protection, your only option is to reset the C6 and lose all of your  
backed-up content.  
There is no way to recover your data.
