Hello, I'm looking for a File Backup software for some specific folders to an external hard drive. I tried the Backup and Restore functionality built-in Windows 7 ... but that was an utter deception ! Because after reformatting, it wouldn't locate my backup, and would move every file to backup to the external hard drive all over again in order to create a new backup, instead of reusing the old one and just update the changes. I tried BackUp Maker, I created a backup of 300gb in my external HDD, And I tried to delete a single file in the original folder, and then relauch the backup ...And WTF!!! it recreated another backup and began to copy all the files !!! [TLDR] I just need ONE backup on my exteral HDD, I would prefer it to be compressed to have more space. And when in the future, I am launching the backup, I certainly don't want it to copy ALL my files again, I want it to act exactly like Dropbox: copy the new files, delete the files I deleted since the last backup. And don't screw-up everything if I reinstall Windows. Don't care about schedules, drive or system backup. Thanks for your attention
If you don't mind about compression and want a mirror back up for example, Syncovery or Goodsync are good tools.
