hi I'd just like to know whether the mirror backup function is a 2-way or 1-way mirror? Personally I'm looking for a backup function that copies files from source to destination in that direction only and only overwrites older files, leaving redundant files alone. For example a current working folder with current files backing up to an archive with older versions and deleted - but not the reverse (I don't want the deleted versions to pop up back in the current working folder). So, not really a mirror in the real world sense.
The mirror backup function - Is it "2-way" or just "1-way"

Hi,
FBackup is exactly what you need.
FBackup is a onw way backup solution.
Use the Mirror backup type to copy only new and modified files to destination and also remove excluded or deleted files from destination.

Hi,
Please open Backup Properties (Ctrl+P)->Mirror page.
Make sure the "Remove excluded or deleted files from backup" option is not checked.
