If you click the Yes button for this option, you are taken through a wizard to create a
backup set. You can select predefined backup sets: Data Backup of all available files on
the system or c:-drive. My Documents which limits the backup to a smaller amount of
data files but usually includes all of your data files, or Let Me Choose which will allow
you to choose the drives, folders, files or file extensions you want to backup and select a
location for them to go.
The only options available beyond the above is scheduling and naming the backup set.
Backup
Once you have defined one or more Backup Sets and set the options for those sets, you
are ready to manually run backups or to have scheduled backups run automatically.
Restore
The Restore function, also known as QuickRestore, enables you to quickly replace lost
data with data you have previously backed up.
Security
The Security function enables you to lock your external drive with a password. You will
need the BounceBack software to unlock the drive.
Settings

during the installation. The Settings function can add advanced features to any Backup
Set. A Backup Set is a set of characteristics that you define to create a backup for a
specific purpose. The characteristics that you can define include the:
