Reviewed by: CNET Staff
It's good to have a reliable program to watch your back. File Backup Watcher is well-designed and easy to use, with just the right amount of functions and flexibility for the nervous sysadmin or small business. Installation is a snap; the program's interface is stylish and drawn in 3D. A step-by-step wizard (called Profile) walks you through setting up a backup procedure. You can schedule backups as often as needed, and choose a manual or automatic (or grades thereof) start. File Backup Watcher also includes a burner so you can instantly record data onto a CD or DVD. Another nice feature includes the option to change the program language (to your native tongue) as well as to change the look and feel of the program window. Overall, File Backup Watcher is a quality program that eliminates trouble in the backup process.Publisher's description
From Desktop Software :Using manual and semiautomated backup systems are as effective as using a screwdriver for driving nails into wood. File Backup Watcher allows all kinds of backup activities from a manual to a fully automated process. Your vital data can be backed up to local or network drives, CDs, and DVDs. The convenient scheduler offers flexible time and condition-based backups, saving you time, money, and nerves.

Version: File Backup Watcher Free Edition 2.8.28
"Hey! Guess what's NOT free! And quite useless, too!"
Pros: Looks cool.
Cons: Have NO idea how to make it work. Check out the read-me file, explicitly states that it is "not free software". Funny...all over the place, it says it is. Liars, I guess.
Summary: Pass. Use the Windows default or go out and buy a good back-up software. This is crap.
