Click Browse and use the Browse for Folder  
window to select the drive or folder containing  
the files you would like to archive.  
Note: Files stored on different source drives cannot be  
archived in the same Backup Files project.  
Creating a custom category  
Most computer files are defined by the two-,  
three-, or four-letter extension placed at the end of  
their names. Plain text files, for example, can be  
identified by their .txt file extension. When you  
record a Backup Files project, the program is  
simply searching your computer for files with  
extensions that correspond to the categories you  
selected. If you want to archive files that are not  
included on any of the pre-defined lists, you could  
choose to archive all files or edit one of the  
existing categories (see “Backup Files options“ on  
page 13 for more information), or you could create  
your own custom list of file extensions that will  
appear as the category called My Custom  
Category.  
Select the types of files you wish to archive.  
Choose either All files in the selected path or Only  
files in the following categories.  
If you selected only files in the following  
categories, select the file categories you would  
like to archive. The choices are Email, Financial,  
Music, Photos, Productivity, and Video and Recorded TV.  
If you created a custom category, it will also be  
available. See "Creating a custom category" on

Scheduler tips  
The following tips will help you to better  
understand the scheduler:  
1
Click File. If the project is listed on the File  
menu, select it. If the project is not listed, click  
Open and use the dialog box to navigate to the  
project file. By default, project files are saved in  
your Windows Vista and Windows 7  
Scheduled projects must be saved before they  
can be run.  
Keep the following limitations in mind if you  
want a scheduled project to be completed  
successfully while you are away from your  
computer:  
Documents folder or Windows XP My  
Documents folder. The settings for that project  
are displayed in the project window.  
2
Change the project settings as needed. Click  
Save to save your changes. (If you save the  
project without changing its name, the original  
project is overwritten.)  
Backup Files will not overwrite files without  
your permission. This usually involves  
clicking on a series of message boxes. To  
perform an unattended archive project,  
you may need to change the hard drive  
destination for your archived files or archive  
your files to a disc.  
3
4
If necessary, insert a blank or rewritable disc  
into the selected destination drive.  
Click the action  
button to begin recording.  
A progress screen informs you when the  
project has been completed.  
If you are archiving files onto a disc, a blank  
disc must be inserted in your drive when  
the project starts.  
Some of the energy conservation settings  
available for your computer may keep a  
scheduled project from starting even if the  
project launcher is open.  
Using the Backup Files scheduler  
Each time you create a Backup Files project, you  
have the option of running it immediately or  
scheduling the project to run at a regular interval  
that you choose.  
The Backup Files project uses a scheduler that  
is part of the Windows operating system. A  
system administrator has the ability to prevent  
a computer user from using the scheduler or  
running scheduled projects. If the Backup Files  
scheduler does not work as expected, consult  
your system administrator.  
You can use your Windows scheduling  
software to customize when your saved  
projects run. You can schedule a project to run  
twice a week or once every hour. Save your  
project, then edit the schedule using the  
Windows Scheduler.  
To schedule a Backup Files project:  
1
Open the Backup Files project.  
2
Set up a new project or select a saved project.  
See "Creating a new Backup Files project" on  
page 11 for more information on starting a  
project.  
3
Choose one of the scheduling options in the  
project window:  
Run now-The project runs after you click the  
action button.  
Daily-The project runs every day at the time  
the project was created.  
Weekly-The project runs once a week at the  
time and on the day of the week the project  
was created.  
To run Windows Scheduler in Windows XP, click  
Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, Scheduled  
Tasks.  
To run Windows Scheduler in Windows Vista and  
Windows 7, click Start, All Programs, Accessories, System  
Tools, Task Scheduler.  
Monthly-The project runs once a month at  
the time and on the day of the month the  
project was created.  
Note: See Windows Help and Support for information  
on using the Windows Scheduler. Remember that  
scheduling changes made directly in the Windows  
Scheduler are not displayed in the Backup Files project  
window.

5
Save your project by clicking Save. A save  
window appears.  
Name the project, then click OK.  
Note: If you schedule a monthly backup for the 31st day  
of the month, your backup will be skipped during  
months with fewer than 31 days. Backups scheduled  
on the 29th or 30th day of the month will also be  
skipped during some months.

Continue adding file extensions one at a time  
until you are finished.  
To remove a file extension from your list, click  
its name in the list box, then click Remove.  
Backup tips  
All of the discs used in a Back Up Files project  
must be the same general format.  
In a multi-disc Back Up Files project, files are  
assigned based on the size of the first disc you  
use. If your first disc has a capacity of 650 MB,  
for example, no more than 650 MB will be  
burned on any subsequent disc, even if it has a  
larger capacity. This also means that no disc in  
a project can have a smaller capacity than the  
first disc used in a project.  
Click OK to save your list as My Custom  
Category.  
To add file extensions to one of the preset file selection  
categories:  
1
Select the file category you would like to  
customize. The choices are Email, Financial, Music,  
Photos, Productivity, and Video & Recorded TV.  
Discs used in a Back Up Files project are closed  
once they are recorded. If you use write-once  
discs, you will not be able to add additional  
data.  
To view a list of the files on a Back Up Files disc,  
open the .RFI file placed on the disc.
