You should become familiar with at least these two:
• BounceBack Express Backup
To launch the backup application, double-click the
BBBackup.exe icon. If you have a dual-interface kit,
you can also press the backup button to start a backup.
• BB Settings
If you want to add, edit, remove, disable, or schedule
backup sets, launch the BBSettings.exe application.
You can also use this application to exclude specific
files from backups and to view information about the
backup device being used to store your data.
Configuring your first backup
When the software installation is complete,
BounceBack Express leads you through configuration
for your first backup. It prompts you to identify the
target location of your first backup, the timing for it,
and so forth.
Follow the BounceBack Express instructions, or see
below for details.
1. In the configuration menu, click yes to direct your
backup to any hard drive other than your primary
(internal) hard drive. Click no to direct your backup
to your primary hard drive.

2. If you click yes, BounceBack Express detects all
other hard drives connected to your system and
prompts you to select one for your backup. Select
the drive of your choice. BounceBack Express scans
your hard drive to determine the size of and estimated
time for the backup. The source drive and backup
size, time estimate, and target location are displayed.
3. You can select View Settings if you want to launch
the BounceBack Express Settings programme. This
allows you to change the default backup settings to
customise your backup. Otherwise, you can accept
the default settings and choose between starting
your backup now or later.
Subsequent backups
With a dual-interface kit, you can start a subsequent
backup by simply pushing the backup button.
This automatically launches either the default or the
customised backup that you created. The duration of
a subsequent backup is very short; only those files that
are either new or changed since the last backup are
backed up.
With a USB-only kit, you can start a subsequent
backup by clicking on the BounceBack icon. The
backup behaviour and duration is the same with or
without the pushbutton backup feature.
