 How to Create a Schedule


   Here you will learn how to create a schedule for BackUpTime to make backup copies of selected folders. Follow the steps below and click the links for details (don't forget to click Back afterwards to return to the description).

   1. Open the Schedules tab.
   2. Click the New button on the toolbar. The Schedule Editor window will appear.
   3. In the Schedule Editor window, specify an alias for the schedule. Then press the Add button at the top of the window. The Add items window will appear.
   4. In the Add items window, double-click on the "Copy" line. The action will be immediately added to the schedule, the Add items window will be closed and you will get back to the Schedule Editor.
   5. In the Schedule Editor window, double-click on the "Copy" line at the top of the list (double-clicking has the same effect as pressing the Set up button). The Action "Copy" editor window will appear.
   6. Use the Action "Copy" editor window, to add a folder (or multiple folders) to the list of folders to be copied. To do that, press the Add button. The Browse For Folder window will appear.
   7. In the Browse For Folder window, choose a folder or disk to be backed up. Repeat this step for every folder or disk you want to back up.
   8. Then use the Add button to add a folder (or multiple folders) to the bottom list. BackUpTime will copy the folders in the upper list to every folder in the bottom list.
   9. If you want your folders to be archived before copying, go back to step 4 and choose "Archive to the ZIP" instead of "Copy". When done, press OK to get back to the Schedule Editor.
   10. If you prefer to start the copying process manually (whenever you want to), then you do not need to do any further setup. Just press OK to complete the schedule creation.
   11. If you prefer the copying process to be scheduled to run at a specified time, then in the Schedule Editor press the Add button in the "List of events for a schedule activation" section. The Time Event Editor window will appear.
   12. Set the preferred time and other options of the event, assign an alias and press OK. Then press OK in the Schedule Editor window.

   That's it!
