Thank you for choosing our program. We did our best
to make it as friendly and easy to use as possible, and we believe you
will like it. If you cannot easily make your way through the interface, please
use the help button (
) to get help on the current BackUpTime window. From the very
beginning, BackUpTime was developed to be a convenient and, at the same
time, full-featured program for making backup copies of important
documents or folders.
Being very versatile, BackUpTime can also be used
as a scheduler. A scheduler is a program that can run other programs or
open a certain file (Windows should know what program to open the file
with) at the specified time or periodically.
For example: run a disk defragmentation program every Sunday at 2:00
AM.
You can also use BackUpTime as a reminder about upcoming
events. After all, BackUpTime is always running, so why not let it do more
work for you? All you need to do is specify the time and the message to
display.
To operate the program at its fullest potential you only
need to learn 3 basic concepts, which are very easy to remember:
1. "Schedule "
- is a list of actions to be performed on occurrence of an event. In other
words, you give an order and the program completes it! You only need
to choose what actions to perform on what events.
2. "Action" - is what the
program can do: copy folders, compress them, send messages, play audio
files, display messages... and so on. We are constantly adding new
actions based on your requests. You can send us
a request to add a desired action to the list here.
3. "Event" - is what triggers actions
included in a schedule. Now only timer events are available, i.e.
you specify the time that the action will be performed at.
A schedule can contain multiple actions and events. This gives the
program a unique flexibility. Learn how to create a schedule here
or read the Starting the work section.
By default, BackUpTime is only visible in the system tray
(the area near the clock). The icon below (the gray one, 2nd from the
clock) indicates that the program is idle.

And this icon indicates that a schedule item is being run.

All program settings can easily be customized. See the
details here.
