MultiBackup

MultiBackup

MultiBackup provides a Windows graphical interface for several command line backup tools.

  • Robocopy.exe from Microsoft, already installed in Vista and Windows 7.
  • Regedit.exe from Microsoft, standard in all Windows versions.
  • Zip.exe from info-zip.org.
  • Rsync (using cygwin) from samba.org.
  • WinMerge (if installed).

The command line utilities are included in the installer in case you don't already have them. The program can be used in portable mode from a USB drive.

With MultiBackup you can create as many backup profiles as you need, and run them whenever required. There are several ways to run your backup profiles, including command line parameters for scheduling or creating shortcuts

After running profiles, you can use the View log button to see a log of the backup process and files copied. A new log file is created each day and old ones are cleaned up after 7 days.

MultiBackup is a portable application

You can run it from a portable drive, and it saves all it's settings on that drive. It can also use relative paths for source and destination folders so that changing the drive letter is not a problem. By default all it's settings are saved in a single file (MultiBackup.ini) in the program folder. You can also have per-computer or per-user settings by simply copying this file and giving it a computer or user name (eg. MIKE-PC.ini or Mike.ini). All logs are also stored within the program folder.
