My problem with it is the lack of automation and this is why I don't
use TB!'s backup facility. I don't think of backing up but it just
happens. My active accounts and registry key are backed up every
morning at 4am and my archive account backed up weekly by using the
system scheduler, WinRAR and two batch files. RAR archives are created
and placed on a 250MB zip disk.

I use WinRAR because it supports CLI options and RAR archives are
reputed to be more reliable.

If you wish to see what my batch files look like you can check here:
