Once open, you'll be prompted to create a new backup job.
First, select the folder you want to backup.
It can be stored locally or in the cloud.
Navigate to the desired location and select the folder.
Next, choose where to store your backup. This can also be local storage or a cloud service like ZipShare, OneDrive, or Dropbox. In this example, we'll select Google Drive.
You also have the option to encrypt your backup.
Click 'OK' to save the job.
You can now set the backup job's frequency, time, and start date. Enable the job to activate it.
You can modify or delete a job at any time.
