The left list box shows your computer's drives and directories.
Directories appear as folder icons. They are arranged in alphabetical
order, in a "tree" hierarchy similar to Windows Explorer. Clicking a
plus sign next to a drive or a folder shows its subfolders and changes
the plus sign to a minus sign. Clicking the minus sign collapses the
folder, hiding the subfolders.
The right list box shows the names of files associated
with the drives and directories selected in the left list
box. A checkmark indicates that the file is to be backed
up. You can sort files by clicking Name, Size, Type, or
Modified at the top of the list box.
In the left list box, click the name of a drive or directory.
When the files associated with that drive or directory appear
in the right list box, click the check box in front of each file
you want to back up. If you decide not to back up a file, click
its checkbox again to remove the checkmark.
In the left list box, click the check box in front of each
directory you want to back up. All subdirectories (left list
box) and files (right list box) associated with the directories
you selected are checked. To omit a subdirectory or file from
being backed up, click its check box to remove the
checkmark.
In the left list box, click the check box in front of the drive
