One-click BackUp for WinRAR (OCB) allows you to create an unlimited number of presets containing dozens of settings. Each preset can be quickly loaded by clicking on a corresponding shortcut. The safety of your data is explained by the fact that the program doesn't use amateurish algorithms of file compression - OCB completely relies on WinRAR. WinRAR is a powerful and widespread file archiver. RAR files can usually compress content 8 to 30 percent better than ZIP ones, providing better file safety and secrecy. Most home and corporate users have already switched from ZIP to RAR, and it was a handy backup shell utility that they all waited for. It is completely compatible with the latest WinRAR version. It's capable of creating ZIP and RAR archives, as well as self-extracting EXE archives - you won't need any software at all to extract your files.

This installer includes both the Freeware and Shareware versions. The Freeware version does not have Anti-hooligan protection, Error notification messages to administrator's e-mail, Backup archives to network folders, Upload archives to FTP servers with auto-cleanup of unneeded files, Send archives as e-mail attaches, Complete modem dialup support for FTP/SMTP sessions, Write archives to CD-R/RW, or Remote control via Internet or LAN.

    Excellent program. It does everything I want for backing up. I like that I can set how many copies to keep and overwrite the older ones. I also like the fact it allows you to choose to add a RAR recovery record to each backup for more safety. Plus it isn't using some weird proprietary format. I had problems at first with Vista x64 until I realized I needed to run it as "Administrator".

    Rar is the way to go. I have used Rar for over 9 years now and never once I had a problem. This program which uses RAR as a backed is very good. I just use a batch file to do the same job. It uses the windows scheduler to do the job.

    Request to the author : You have a good thing going. Please don't bloat this thing by adding DVD writing stuff and other peripheral stuff. Backups are an interesting area where one can add a lot of stuff and before you know it the application will be bloatware.

    That is the most informative comment I've seen from a developer. Thanks for taking the trouble. I'll now try the software. The rating is for the comment:-)
