Basics

HOW DOES CLICKFREE WORK?

All you need to do to keep your projects, photos, videos, music etc. safe is to plug Clickfree

in to your computer and let it work!

No need to install software or to configure anything. Your computer knows when Clickfree

has been plugged in, and it runs the backup program automatically each time it is

connected.

You can back up as many computers as you like with the Clickfree Portable Backup Drive.

The same thing happens each time you plug it into a new computer. And each of your

backed-up computers is kept separate on your Portable Backup Drive.

When Clickfree has finished backing up each computer, just unplug the Portable Backup

Drive and store in a safe place, or leave it plugged in and just push the Backup button at

any time to perform another backup..

If your data is lost for any reason (hard disk crash, laptop lost or stolen, content

accidentally deleted), you’ll be really happy that you bought and used Clickfree. Your

backed-up content is safe on your Clickfree backup, waiting to be restored when you have

a working computer again.

A Clickfree backup is also ideal for transferring your content from an old computer to a

new one.

Sometimes, for a variety of reasons, the program may not run by itself – it may need a little

help. If this happens to you, don’t worry – it’s easy to get things going. We’ll show you how

a little later. For details, see “What if Clickfree doesn’t start up automatically?” on page 13.

WHAT GETS BACKED UP?

CLICKFREE BACKS UP CONTENT

At Clickfree we want to protect our customers from losing things that are irreplaceable.

That’s why Clickfree finds and backs up all of the content from wherever it is on your

computer.

When it runs automatically, Clickfree searches your computer for all of the content that

you have either created or placed in your computer. This includes photos, music, video,

office documents, financial data, email, and so much more - over 400 types of files. To see a

list of the categories of content that Clickfree backs up automatically, see “What content

categories does Clickfree back up?” on page 9. Most likely, this means that it will back up

everything that matters to you right out of the box without you having to do anything but

plug it in.

Unless you explicitly ask it to do so, Clickfree does not back up the programs or the

operating system. This means that your backup won’t need nearly as much space as the

size of your computer’s hard drive since your content may only take up a small portion of

your hard drive’s capacity, and we only look for the content.
