guys I was unable to use the microsoft app. Installation required downloading a file for the MS website, and with no internet connection at home it is not doable
BUT Syncback is WONDERFUL! GLORIOUS! all i would ever think of then some more. I found especially convenient the frouping of tasks....
many thanks all, kostas

that's my preferred program too :)
Nice to be able to specify exactly which files by filtype to include or
exclude, whether to overwrite older/newer files or to make renumbered
copies etc
one thing I did for a business I worked for was to set different schedules
for different days across a fortnight so at any point they could restore
either a days backup or a single file! it also works quietly in the
background with no fuss once it's set up.
of all the software i've installed in business operations, this one proved
the most popular :)
