What's happening?

  • Modification time not preserved

    Modification time of folders and files backed up is not preserved. Modification timestamp of the backup folders and files reflects the time the specific folder or file was copied to the backup target.

  • Comment: File content comparison

    I know :) I'll try to add it, but I can't promise that it will be available soon. As a matter of fact, my current priority is to simplify and secure Areca's configuration backup management (to avoid the "I've lost my configuration and can't recover my files" cases)

  • Comment: File content comparison

    No answer? It's a really useful and necessary feature, I think. :)

  • Followup: RE: encryption option is greyed out

    There must be at least something written in your "log" tab when you open the "edit target" window.

  • Incapsulate backup strategy into one command line switch

    Now I should use wizard for implement simple backup strategy from manual. Wizard creates a set of three batch files: 1st: run each day 2nd: run each 7 days 3rd: run each 28 days Its a boring task to schedule three batch files in scheduler so now I join all three files into one and wrap 2nd/3rd files calls with some tools which counts days passed from last run. I mean Areca will happy...

  • overcome bad sectors like Winzip

    When a backup is currupt, due to a bad sector, it cannot be restored. A unhandled error occurs. Winzip can still open the backup file. However all file attributes and dates are lost.

  • Followup: RE: Multi-session full backup?

    Hi Sinasalek is right : there is no way to do this as of now : all your archives must be consistent (otherwise they're deleted by Areca). We could imagine a more flexible "append" backup mode which would allow Areca to start the backup from an existing "transaction point", but such an implementation will not be straightforward (and is not planned yet) Best regards.

  • Followup: RE: Multi-session full backup?

    Well, i dont think you can, i'm using rsync for transfering my backup files for the exact same reason.
