SavRestaure Portable

Keeping an extra copy of important items around is a reliable method of preventing data loss. This operation is known as a backup, which is best done often, especially if the target item gets regularly updated. This is exactly the purpose of SavRestaure Portable, which enables you to keep safe copies of multiple directories.

Just as the name clearly points out, this application doesn’t require installation, and can be used from the moment download is done. This is a pretty good advantage, because it encourages you to keep it stored on a thumb drive along with backup items, just in case something happens to your computer.

You start off in the settings panel, which isn’t really difficult to figure out. A destination directory needs to be selected, as well as general backup rules. On the bright side of things, the application allows you to simultaneously create a backup of multiple directories, and comes with extra slots apart from the default three.

Files inside the target directory are kept intact, and the backup item is created so that it can’t be accessed. You can choose to only target the root directory, or all subdirectories, just to be on the safe side. Apart from depth, you can also set the backup name type, which can either be the date, or date and time.

The backup process itself doesn’t take a lot of time. Unfortunately, there’s no possibility to create a schedule, so all operations need to be manually triggered. Restoring is done for all directories inside the backup file, which are placed in their original locations, which care automatically created if missing or changed.

On an ending note, SavRestaure Portable delivers a pretty intuitive set of features which helps you secure folders, especially if you’re working in a sensible environment. Backup files can’t be directly accessed, but this only adds a bit more security to the entire operation.
