IDrive Express
allows you to backup files when they are in use. The common open files
that can be backed up using this option are Outlook files (.pst),
QuickBooks, Quicken, ACT, MS-Money, MS-Word, MS-Excel, MS-Access, MS
FoxPro and so on.
To backup open files,
1. Right-click the IDrive Express Tray icon.
2. Select Preferences> General.
3. Enable the Open file Backup option using the check box. 4. Browse and select the Cache location for the open file backup copies.
Note:
This feature works only for Windows XP, Windows 2003, Windows 2008 Server, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 Operating Systems.
The selected Cache (temporary) folder should have sufficient space for the Open files.
Volume Shadow Copy service should be started for successful open file backup.
The open file backup feature does not support backup of open files in the mapped/network drives.
