Monthly file backup

Thread needs solution

I am creating a monthly file backup manually. I would like to select the specific files one time and then save that setting and have Acronis remember it for the next manual file backup. Is there a way to accomplish this?

thanks

Well, you just need to create a backup task with the right file selection, and run it monthly.

You may also want to consider the type of backup and set your task for automatic cleanup of its old tib files as new tib files are created. Depending upon the method you choose, one of these procedures would work. Do remember a files only backup will not create a new replacment disk, for that you need a different disk image backup of all partitions if you wish to recover to a new disk should you have a disk failure.
