CNET Editors' review
This freeware offers a simple-to-use utility for backing up your files to a location of your choosing, although it is limited in scope. MyBackup opens in a well-designed interface with buttons and context menu options. Creating a set of source and target locations is simple, as is defining filters to specify the types of files to back up (DOC, TXT, MP3). However, unlike other backup utilities, MyBackup offers no scheduling and security features and is unable to back up to a compact disc, which limits the backup process to storage media that does not require burning. Although novice users may find this freeware simple to use, advance users may want to look for another application with more flexibility and functionality.

From Dionel de la Cruz:
MyBackup is the easiest, most convenient, and most user-friendly software application that will easily and quickly back up your files to a location of your choosing for safe keeping. What is it: If you've ever wanted a quick, simple and easy way to backup your files for safe keeping, then this is it. MyBackup is an easy to use backup software application that makes it easy for just about anyone to create backups of their files. How to Backup: Simply right click on an unoccupied row selection. You'll will be prompted if you wish to create a backup set. Select 'Yes'. Select the folder, which contains files that you wish to backup. You will then be prompted to set a filter to the backup set. The default filter is set to *.*, which means - backup all files in the selected source folder. You can set the filter to backup only files that end with *.dat, *.wks, *.doc and so on. Third and final step will be to select a backup location for your files.
