This software selectively copies pre-chosen items to a backup location and synchronizes with the last backup, copying changed files and removing old ones while preserving the directory structure. It also features a timer.

One of the key benefits of using SmartDirCopy is its clear and concise approach to backing up your files. It keeps the directory structure and file formats exactly as they were in the source, making it easy to control the results of the backup or quickly restore a file. You can back up to several types of drives, including hard disk, CD, DVD, USB-stick, external hard drive, and other direct access media.
SmartDirCopy includes a timer for those who want automated backups, while extended real-time monitoring and logging features enable curious or suspicious users to keep an eye on what's happening. This backup software is particularly useful for people whose work is frequently updated but not backed up by a central system.
It's important to note that users who opt to backup to CDs or DVDs should ensure that they're directly accessible using software like DirectCD from Roxio or other software that comes with your writer. Overall, SmartDirCopy is a must-have for anyone looking for a simple, frequent, and fast backup solution.
