Backup Magic is a simple, fast and compact backup/file copy utility. It does not have loads of options, but it includes the most required options to get your job done fast and easy. Backup Magic copies new or modified files (you can specify include/exclude masks) from selected folders to another location that can be another folder, network drive, zip disk or whatever writeable device you see in Windows Explorer. Even making backup to a CD-R disk is not a problem until you have packet-writing software like Adaptec DirectCD running. You can make multiple groups and specify several file filtering options, request log file generation, use incremental or mirror backup mode and set many other options. Additionally you can use variables in destination folder names, so you can automatically generate folder names with current date/time/day (like Backup of Monday AM) - useful for keeping version history by date. Backup Magic runs on any Windows95/98/NT4 machine.
