Auto Backup is designed to be a small low CPU usage tool that will automatically backup your USB flash drives when they are plugged into your computer or laptop.

Auto Backup starts up with your computer and monitors which USB devices are plugged in. The program keeps an individual backup for each USB device, and can be configured to keep more than one backup of a device so that you can return to a previous file stage should the original become corrupt.

The default backup location is C:Backup however you can easily change using the new options page, simply click on the icon in the system tray. There is also the facility to open the backup directory so that you can navigate to your backups quickly.

You are able to stop and restart backups quickly with the system tray icon, allowing you to prevent backing up of a device if it is a friends or you don’t require a backup. The icon in the system tray changes depending on the state of the program, this makes it easy to identify whether a backup is taking place.

Auto Backup keeps backups in groups of day (e.g. 5 days will make a backup for the period of the 10th to the 14th), you can now specify the length of these groups, allowing you to control your backups more effectively. You can select how many of the groups (backup copies) you wish to keep on your computer, the program will automatically remove the oldest of the backups if you have more copies than you have specified. The more copies you specify to keep the more hard drive space is required but it is easier to return to a valid file if your original is corrupted or deleted.

Version 5 brings yet more control to your figure tips, the new options page allows you to quickly change the backup directory and the number of backup copies you wish to keep. It also allows you to specify which drives you always want to backup, those you never want to backup, and those that you should be asked about.

If you don't specify whether you want a backup of a particular device to be made a small dialog box will appear at the bottom of your screen when the device is plugged in, asking you whether you wish to make a backup or not. Simply click yes or no, for this action to be made every time the device is plugged in click on the remember this setting box.

Version 3 adds some new features. Firstly you are able to select USB devices that you never want to backup, for example your Ipod or MP3 Player. You simply use the new interface to type the devices name that you don't want to backup. Secondly there is a backup feature that allows you to right click on any file or folder and select Send To, Backup. This will make a backup of the selected items in your backup directory.

Before using this program please make sure that all of your USB devices have been given individual names. To do this simply plug the USB device into your computer, open My Computer, right click on the device and select Properties. There is then a box which you can fill in which represents the device's name.

Warning
When unplugging the USB devices always make sure that the green arrow is not showing as this indicates a backup is taking place. If you wish to remove the USB device while a backup is taking place click on the stop backup icon in the programs menu before unplugging the device.
