File backup

Thread needs solution

I have the simplest of all possible questions, I apologize in advance. I have been using Acronis to BU into Secure Zones and Comodo to do backups from disk to disk. Example I backup up ~1Tb of music from my machine to a music server, 'the beatles' folder gets copied as 'the beatles'. When I copy with Acronis I get LCK, XMK & Acronis Backup Files.

So, am I just not able to find a setting that simply copies a file from one place to another? As I mentioned I apologize for a strange question but I couldn't come up with a search that surfaced an answer to this. This feature may only be in my wishes, or I just can't find it, or...

Thanks in advance - Eric

With ATI (Acronis True Image) 2015, you have 2 types of file "backup"
- the normal file backup puts the files into a container (TIB or ZIP), so that you can have incremental backups, keep versions, etc.
- the sync function allows you to replicate files across computers and devices (not on local USB disks).

If you want to simply copy/sync files from a hard disk to another, you have to use another tool, or the previous version of ATI (2014).

Thank you Pat L. I suspected that was the case but figured the problem could be between the keyboard and the chair :)
