    One things was unclear to me. When you select the manual backup option (choosing your own folders and files for backup) is that setting saved? I hate my current backup software (came with my WD external HDD) because I have to select the folders for backup manually every time I want to run a backup or be content with the default settings (which I don't really trust).

    I'm fairly certain it does save the settings. I wrote this review a little over a month ago -- maybe someone who uses this service can fill us in.
