They say we should back up our most important files, regularly. Although I've never suffered from any serious system error (thus losing files as a result), it's also very easy to forget which files you should place on your new PC. For example, commercial fonts. There have been many instances where I've spent ages backing up my most important data, moving this across to a new PC and then wiping the old drive, only to find that I forgot to move across a commercial font. This can be of paramount importance if you're responsible for producing company literature using specific fonts.

DFIncBackup 2.8 Home Edition is a free version of the backup tool that will enable you to backup your important files to a ZIP archive. It supports incremental backup, which means you only need to backup data updated since your last backup. The free Home edition only enables you to backup to an archive 2GB in size. Ideal for your most important documents and small files.
