I have been using and depending on Karen's Replicator for a while now. It
works great! Is there a way to set it up to backup my email message folders
in Windows Mail? I have not compared it to the Windows Vista feature for
backing up folders. Is this new?

Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] backing up a program file
There are 2 types of back up. Ideally you should do both kinds.
1. A disk image back up. Ideally you should do this when your PC is
working
at its best, perhaps soon after windows has been installed and you have
all
the software and drivers you need loaded. A disk imaging program will
take
a snapshot of the PC whilst it is working well. If at any time you get
into
trouble on your PC you can restore this image but it will overwrite
everything on your C Drive and literally reproduce an exact copy of your
system on the day the image was made. This kind of restore has to happen
outside of Windows and so sighted help is often needed. Norton Ghost is a
famous program which does this and I believe the owner of the Jaws User
list has identified an accessible option with a program called Image for
Windows. I believe that he has posted instructions on how to use this
program which I think relies on backing up through DVDS . Apparently it
is
possible to follow instructions so that you can complete this process
without sighted help.
2. The drawback with this process is that you lose any recent emails data
or
other files written on the C Drive after the image was taken. You should
also then back up your data to a separate drive using a data backup tool.
I
use Karen's Replicator which I consider to be the best tool I have come
across. This program can be got from the Jaws User Programs page and is
simple to set up. I would suggest you download it and have a try at using
it. If you have any problems then post here and I am sure that you will be
able to get some help.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] backing up a program file
Does anyone know how to back up files or know of a good resource that can
walk me through the back-up process? I feel silly not knowing how to do
this since I've owned a computer for over a decade, but I honestly have
never learned how.
Thanks,
