Basics (DVD)

HOW DOES CLICKFREE WORK?

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

Clickfree C2 Portable Backup Drive in to your computer, supply recordable media when

prompted, and let it work!

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

Clickfree C2 Portable Backup Drive 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 C2 Portable Backup

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

information about each of your backed-up computers is kept separate on the C2 Portable

Backup Drive.

When Clickfree has finished backing up each computer, just unplug the C2 Portable

Backup Drive, eject the backup disk, and store them in a safe place.

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 do I do if Clickfree doesn’t start automatically?” on

page 75.

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 backs up everything in your Home folder – this is

where you normally put all of the content that you create or place in your computer. This

includes photos, music, video, office documents, financial data, email, etc 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 applications or the

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

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

your hard disk’s capacity, and we only back up the content.
