I've just started using karens replicator having been aware of it for quite some time. It's super easy to use but quite powerful. The first time you use it you configure a "job' e.g. tell it what you want backing up and where you want it backing up to. You can configure whether you want sub folders to be included, and if you want deletions and changes to be reflected in the back-up or if you just want new files to be added to the back-up. You can choose if you want the back-up to be done on a schedule or manually. When a job is configured - and you can have as many jobs set-up as you like. You are presented with a list of them. You just tick or check the ones you want to be run, and either wait for the schedule to do it, or if doing it manually click the run jobs button and leave it be. Couldn't be any easier. It's free and easy to find on line just search for it by name. Adrian Higginbotham Manager, leading edge research.

The back up system that I am using at the moment is click free, but it only backs up files. I was looking for a backup system that backed up folders with the files still in the folders.

If not you can use the free Karen's Replicator from www.karenware.com. This is for data backups. I've heard of the commercial Image for Windows, and did try it briefly before moving to Windows 7. This is for system backups. You can get this from www.terabyteunlimited.com. Hope this helps.
