How to back up USB Flash drive

A good example of ready-to-use backup profile which is configured to back up user's Documents directory to USB Flash Drive is delivered with the program. This example is independent of your system environment, so you don't need to do any changes, only execute it and explore results:

• Insert USB memory stick;
• Launch backup manager (D_backm.exe);
• Press Open button on toolbar and select profile "My_documents_to_flash.bks";
• Press Back Up button - that will open the backup sheet. On this sheet press "Run Job" button. That's all, the program will perform the following backup job automatically without your help.

The processing protocol is displayed in the bottom part of the window. Your documents directory (usually this is c:\Documents and settings\usename\My Documents) is backed up to your Flash drive to directory \Backup. The program creates backup in a file My documents-1.zip. 
Pay attention, that this example is independent of location of your documents directory and USB flash drive letter, assigned by system.

Open Config menu and navigate to General sheet:
