- What is the difference between AceBackup backup

In an AceBackup archive you can create your own folder structure.
Whereas the AceBackup backup adopts the folder structure of your local system - in the backup project you cannot create your own folders.
- I saved my project file and now it is irrevocably
lost, how can I access my data now?
-
You can restore your data, even if the project file got lost.
AceBackup enables you to import project data from your backup location. This way you can work with your backup without having to create a new project even if your project file got lost.
- Is it possible to make automatic and scheduled
backups?
-
Yes, you can schedule automatic backups of your data for each project. You can also backup your data during open circuit operations of your system, for example, if you left your work place for getting a cup of coffee.
