I am into automated tasks for laborious jobs like backing up and/or copying and pasting raw data and folders. I have a bunch of different folders I like to backup besides doing my weekly Acronis image. Is there a program that will do this WITHOUT creating a proprietary file/folder or huge zip file? I just want the folders backed up to my external on a regular basis AS IS, no change etc.. whatsoever. Acronis just wants to put them in a tib or zip file and even with no compression it takes longer to do a series of just folder than a whole image. Norton backup just does some weird proprietary file system and creates a virtual drive to look at stuff. I want none of that.
I could probably take the time to make a batch file but I don't know enough about the syntax to do it.
