Easy to Use

• Comprehensive help file.
• 'What's this' help. (Right-click an item on screen for a quick help definition of that item.)
• Select folders/files for backup or restore in a graphical tree view. (You can use absolutebackup's easy to use tree view to extract files from normal Zip files as well.)

Flexible & Powerful

• For extra safety, you can now create 'archive backups' which save a copy of every file that changes between backups to a separate backup file. This allows you to restore not only the latest version of a file, but older versions as well.
• 'Quick Select' for easy one click selection of common user data. eg. Favourites, My Documents, Desktop etc..
• Ability to include sub-folders when selecting a folder:
  When you include sub-folders in a selection, the software will automatically include any sub-folder that is added in the future. In addition, you can easily exclude any specific sub-folder as well.
• Multiple folders on any drive can be defined in a backup job.
• Include or exclude specific files/folders or file types.
• Compatible with any media Windows Explorer can write to directly such as network drives, zip drives, SuperDisk, floppy disks, CD-R / CD-RW (using UDF software drivers such as Roxio DirectCD or Ahead InCD). Disk spanning is also supported on removable media.
• Backup jobs can be scheduled to run automatically at any time via the task scheduler, or they can be run manually.
• Backup files are compressed in zip compatible format. The files can be opened/extracted by any zip software application, making the backup files easy to restore onto computers that do not have absolutebackup installed.

Informative

• The Log Book can display the backup status of all files within the backup job.
• The Log Book displays details of any backup problems after a job has finished backing up.

Secure

• Password protection can be applied to backup files.
