A long time ago, when storage space was expensive, it might have been reasonable to compress backups.  But now that storage space is cheap, why have a backup that you need to unpack to read or copy? For profiles and mail I use XCOPY new files - no, I do not run with profiles and mail in the same tree, so they are also backed up to their own trees.  I clone entire partitions and HDDs to other HDDs so they are usable without any processing - yes, that includes boot partitions from multiple OSs.  And none of this cares what version of anything is used. Ray  - WOW! XCOPY.!  Used it quite a it back in DOS days an early widows.  I was using MozBackup away back. until it became unsupported.  Was told that it still worked by an acquaintance and thought I would ask the group to see if anyone else was using it.  Perhaps someone had updated it.  Looks like the answer to both questions is "No";. Then I started using a batch file to back up my daily work - including my profiles of SM and others, For the last few years I've been using "Pure Sync", a free program as my back up software.  It has many user programmable features . -- "This is America!
