|
|
Quite simply, this program is too complicated for me, and the videos do not help. All I want to do is copy my master photo external hard drive (W) to two backup external hard drives (X) and (Y). The choices offered make no sense to me. And, when complete, I want a report that tells me it's done and if there was a problem. That's it. I've tried setting up archive files that the program rejects, I attempted to set up the email but the program rejects that, and I have attempted setting up a simple system to simply copy one drive to two other drives and the program doesn't want to do that either. Do you have a simple set of set up instructions that will do just that without all the razmataz? If not, I'll have to dump this program and move on to something else. |

Hi! the easiest setup would be:
- Start ViceVersa
- Select File-> New Profile to start with a new profile
- Switch to Multiple Sources/Targets
- Add 2 pairs: W to X and W to Y
- Click on Compare
- Once the comparison is finished, select "Backup: Mirror Source to Target" as execution methoid.
- Click on Preview to make sure all expected
- Execute
This will mirror W to X and W to Y.
*** Please note if there are already files on X or Y that are not on source W, they will be removed. See: https://www.tgrmn.com/web/kb/item27.htm
- Save the profile to a .fsf file so you can reopen next time.
This is the minimum settings for a manual mirroring operation.
Then there's LOTS of customizations that can be made. |
