Hi,
You can download it from here.

Do you know you can monitor your backups remotely with Backup4all Monitor? You can read more here: https://www.backup4all.com/backup4all-monitor.html

It works! At last I have a backup program which is simple, understandable and reliable.

Thank you!

I, too, am having problems with the scheduler not activating. I am using FBackup (free) to backup the email on my private office server. It runs the manual backup great, but the scheduled backups (I have more than one) do not initiate. Does FBackup install itself as a Windows Service, or is it a program waiting for someone to log onto the computer before it will run. Naturally, we don't use the server as a workstation, so it may go weeks without someone logging on, especially at the console -- logons are generally done via RemoteDesktop. Can you help with this?
Thank you in advance,

Dennis

Hi,
Until the latest release of FBackup, only the Standalone scheduler was implemented.

You needed to be logged on to run the backup.

In the latest release, we also added the Windows Scheduler which requires your Windows login password and can run scheduled tasks when no user is logged on.
So please create a new scheduled task using the Windows Scheduler from Backup Properties->Scheduler.
