I know... it was a longshot.

I would say just do incremental backups every night.

I think I'll use luckybackup or something similar.

I like the fact these tools allow one to save a number of snapshots so
that if you want to look for something from a month ago, you have a
chance of finding it.   And they back up without ballooning the
storage requirements as time goes on, other than when you have more
data on your drive.
