6. Set filters for not to back up files of specific types. For example, you may want hidden and

system files and folders, as well as files with .~, .tmp and .bak extensions, not to be stored

in the archive.

You can also apply custom filters, using the common Windows masking rules. For example,

to exclude all files with extension .exe, add *.exe mask. My???.exe mask will reject all .exe

files with names, consisting of five symbols and starting with "my".

All of these settings will take effect for the current task. How to set the default filters, that

will be called each time you create a file backup task, see in

7. Click Next.

8. Select the name and location of the archive file.

If you are going to create a full backup, type the file name in the File Name line, or use the

file name generator (a button to the right of the line). If you select an existing archive, it will

be overwritten.

If you are going to create an incremental backup (see

backup

), select the latest full or incremental backup you have.

In fact, if all incremental backup files are stored together, it doesn't matter which one you

select, as the program will recognize them as a single archive. If you stored the files on

several removable disks, you must provide the latest archive file; otherwise, restoration

problems might occur.

If you are going to create a differential backup, select the full backup which will be a base,

or any of existing differential archives. Either way, the program will create a new differential

archive file.
