Configuring your first backup
9. When the BounceBack Control Center displays,
you are offered 3 choices for your first backup Full
System, My
Documents,
and Let Me Choose.
Full System will setup a backup set that includes
all files and folders on your computer. This setting
requires a backup device be connected to the
computer.
Backup Device List identifies available hard drives
for backup use and allows you to select an avail-
able device for the full system backup.
Backup Set Schedule allows you to manually
launch a backup operation or to schedule back-
ups to be launched.
Backup Sizing scans the folders and files on the
system drive and determines the total size of the
files to be backed up.
Note. The size shown will start at 0 and increment, as the size of
each file in the backup set is determined.

show the estimated time it will take for your first
backup to run completely. Click
