You can set different backup criteria for any combination of directories or files and File- Safe only tells you about those files/directories that currently should be backed up. If nothing needs backing up when File-Safe checks it, it automatically returns you to DOS. You never have to worry about the hassle of remembering to do backups because File-Safe automatically tells you. It maintains a complete history of backup activity, which disks contain which backed up files, and allows you to review this information on screen or produce a printed report. The system supports color and lets you choose any combination of colors or black & white. Price: $50 FILE/ARCHIVE: Automatically scan your hard disk for old unused files using a variety of selection parameters. View the data and decide if you still need the file. You can then either delete it or archive it to a diskette and thus free up valuable space on your hard disk. The archived file is then recorded in a catalog available for instant recall. The catalog tells you every file which has been archived, its date and time, where it was archived from, when it Page 3 was archived, and the name of the disk where it now resides. To recall it, just put the archive disk in the disk drive and press a key. It's that simple. You can also recall the file to a new destination or you can "copy" it, thus leaving it in the archive. You can have File/Archive scan your data automatically and on any schedule you wish. If nothing meets the criteria for possible archiving, File/Archive automatically returns you to DOS and you don't even realize it has been run. It's an extremely useful tool for keeping your hard disk from becoming so cluttered that you can't keep track of it all.
