One Touch Backup enables you to make a quick, automated backup of a
selected folder on your PC, at the touch of a button. You can backup the files in a
single folder, multiple folders, or your complete hard disk drive. This feature
works on the Windows PC where you installed the EdgeStore software.
For One Touch Backup to work, you must:
•
Enable One Touch Backup on the EdgeStore
•
Create a Backup Schedule in SmartSYNC
Enabling One Touch Backup
To enable One Touch Backup on the EdgeStore:
1.
On the Windows PC, start EASM.
See "EASM in your Browser" on page 18 or "EASM in SmartSYNC" on
page 19.
2.
In the Tree, click the + beside the Backup icon, then click the Client Backup
icon.
The EdgeStore and One Touch Backup cannot restore a failed
boot drive in your PC. However, you can use the EdgeStore to
save your system backup file. See your Windows documentation
for information about system backups.
•
Windows does not allow SmartSYNC to access protected
folders and files. If you want to perform a backup, you must
first disable protection on your folders and files.
•
If you want to run the Windows Backup or Restore Wizard,
access the EdgeStore as a network drive. See "Setting up a
Network Drive on a Windows PC" on page 21.
