Default Backup Magic

copy utility for power users and system administrators (it is not designed for people who have limited knowledge about computer file systems). It is not meant for full system backups and does not have loads of options, but it does include all of the tools required to get your daily backup jobs done quickly and easily. Backup Magic copies new or modified files (you can specify include/exclude masks) from selected folders to another location such as a folder, network drive, zip disk or whatever writeable device you see in Windows Explorer. Even making a backup to a CD-R(W) or DVD-R(W) disk is not a problem if you have packet-writing software like DirectCD or InCD running. You can also make multiple groups and specify several file filtering options, request log file generation, use incremental or mirror copy mode and much more. Additionally, you can use variables in destination folder names so you can automatically generate folder names with current date/time/day (like Backup of Monday AM or 2007-01-07) - useful for keeping version history by date.
Backup Magic is useful for both personal users and corporate users in a networking environment:
Key features for single/home users:
  • Fast and easy to use daily backup solution
  • Use either Mirror or Incremental mode with include/exclude files/folders masks
  • Allows variables in destination folder name to create a destination folder name that includes current date/time
  • Uses simple file copy; does not use any proprietary file formats so you can restore your data without Backup Magic, simply by copying files back to the source location
  • Works with most standard writeable media (hard drive, floppy, Zip drive, CD-RW, network drive etc)
  • Can detect file changes by timestamp or archive bit
