Webroot antivirus has been regarded as one of the top security software and it is possible to build Backup Profiles for files with Webroot antivirus. If you would rather create your backup profiles for your files yourself in lieu of using the backup Wizard then you’ll must follow a few steps as follows.
It is essential to make sure you have an internet connection that is reliable prior to making Backup Profiles of File with webroot.com/safe. If you are creating backup profiles for files, you need to have an updated version of the Webroot anti-virus security program.
To begin, you must first open your Webroot Backup console
Navigate to the Backup section and click on the Backup tab, select the New backup option.
On the next screen, Webroot will present you with two options for making the profiles more easily and quickly files or emails. you’ll need to select the type of information you want to save on your backup
Then, select the Files option to create an account for backup of your files. In the notification screen that has been updated, you must first go on the tab called What and select the files you want to back up
After that, select then the Add Option to Add the files or the folder to the profile.
If you’ve added complete files to the backup profiles, you’ll have to go through them, and then uncheck non-essential items that you do not wish to backup.
By doing this, you are able to save only the data you’ll need, and you’ll save space in the end.
After you have selected all the files you would like to back up then you must select a place for the backup. You can do this by clicking the Where tab.
Online Drive uploads the files to backup servers, where only you have access to them. you’ll need to identify your backup account.
CD – Webroot Antivirus gives you with the option of backing up the files onto a CD/DVD
Remote/Local Path: You can choose to save your documents on your computer, or locally on a computer connected to the same network
For me, each time, it will trigger Webroot request an archive location at any time that the profile for backup is being used
You can decide when the backup is initiated by setting the settings in the When tab which specifies:
When the PC is not in use If the PC is not being used, Background Backup will look for the profiles that were not run for X days, and select the oldest one first. The profiles are then run for throughout the time the PC is in idle. Once the PC has left the state of idle the backup ceases unless the next idle condition.
Never, I’ll start the backup profile will start only at the moment the user clicks the Run Now button
I would like to select an appointment time – You can select a particular date and time at which you wish that backup profiles to automatically run. If the computer is not switched on during that time then the backup will start upon the next PC’s start.
There is a How tab, which gives the user a variety of options to modify the way the backup profile is performed.
Synchronization Mode Synchronization Mode Webroot will have the synchronization mechanism that operates in Composition in conjunction with scheduled backup. By default, it’s “Never”
Backup Compressing – All files stored on the backup storage will be compressed in order to take up the least space. When you select this option, the data will not be available directly when accessing the online drive using either Internet Explorer or Windows Explorer. If you regularly access the backup disk and want your files to be easily accessible, it’s not recommended to select this method.
Backup Encryption – By default the transfer of data to the back-up drive will be encrypted to better security of the information you transmit to servers. By selecting this option, the information stored on servers will be encrypted using the password that only users have access to webroot.com/safe
This encryption option means that the backups won’t be accessible by simply accessing the online drive using either Internet Explorer or Windows Explorer. This is not an ideal alternative when the user is constantly accessing his backup , and only needs to be retrieving a handful of files accessing the online drive using any browser.
These are some backup options and you are able to contact Webroot Support Number to connect to tech experts for any assistance. The experts are available to help you the best they can.
