How to Backup Toshiba Laptop: Software Utility

Toshiba laptop backup with Handy Backup software is a simple procedure. It consists of the following steps:

• New Task Wizard call. Whenever you need to run a backup process, an intuitive Task Wizard will pop out to guide you through the process stepwise. On each step, you can set up the crucial task parameters, such as data source, destination, scheduling etc.
• Intelligent application data search. To back up the Toshiba laptop information you are need to save, use the “File filters…” option for searching data by a mask of file name, or an appropriate tool on a left panel of a Step 2.
• Choosing storage location. With this Toshiba backup software, you may keep your backups on local and mapped disks, USB drives, NAS units, FTP/SFTP servers, or copy it to offsite cloud account (Handy Backup supports almost all popular cloud services, including Amazon S3).
• Selecting additional backup parameters. You can choose to make only a partial backup of renewed files, encrypt and compress your backup, tune up storing for some versions, schedule your task and link it with system events.
• Starting other programs with a task. The pre-final step allows you to run some program or a batch before/after the execution of your task. Finally, Handy Backup will prompt you to give your task a name, and finish the task creation wizard.

You can automate all Toshiba backup software operations even more by using extra features, adding new plug-ins or upgrading your edition of Handy Backup. For example, you can start Handy Backup as a Windows service to perform scheduled tasks silently, run it from a command prompt, and much more.

Firstly, open Handy Backup and create a new backup task. You can start a Task Wizard by clicking a button on the left side of the Management Panel, or by a menu (either main or context), or just by pressing Ctrl+N key combo. On the Step 1, select a backup task and go to the Step 2.
