Backup operation modes
Three backup operation modes are available.
Normal Backup
All les in the source folder are backed up to the destination folder.
Overwrite Backup (Incremental Backup)
The rst time the backup runs, it backs up all les in the source folder just like a normal backup.
If later, le A is added to the backup source and le B is deleted, the next backup will add le A,
but le B will not be deleted from the backup destination. This will use more space on the backup
destination because of the les that are not deleted.
Overwrite Backup (Dierential Backup)
The rst time the backup runs, it backs up all les in the source folder just like a normal backup.
If later, le A is added to the backup source and le B is removed, the next backup will add le A
and delete le B. This uses the same space on the backup destination as a normal backup.
