Users who rely on the DAR (Disk ARchive) software package for their backup task management, might be struggling to control its features using only the command-line interface. Fortunately, DarGUI is here to provide a front-end graphical user interface that ensures a better accessibility, especially for novices. Featuring a straightforward layout and intuitive menus, it will allow people to quickly set up their preferred DAR backup strategy.

The application presents users with a clean interface that will assist them in the process of handling DAR’s backup features. Providing several on-screen buttons for quick access to some of the most used features, the utility will significantly improve users’ handling of DAR.

A dedicated archive creation wizard will enable one to browse several tabs, each with options for adding custom names, directories, file exclusions/inclusions, slice size allocation, compression and even scheduling.

For those who DAR’s command-line handling is too abstract and difficult to use, this utility could be a life saver, as it offers a far more accessible handling through its GUI. People can define the preferred archives with ease, customize them to meet their requirements, all without inputting syntax in the CMD console.

The main advantage of this utility is the fact that it provides an easy-to-use interface that will not require any advanced knowledge, enabling people to create backup tasks with DAR in no time. In addition to its main backup and archival creation features, it also offers catalog archive isolation and comparison.

This application could be an appropriate choice for people who need an accessible way of using the backup features of the DAR application. Featuring a straightforward interface and intuitive menus, it enables people to easily get around the features provided by the DAR package and perform the required backup tasks.

  • Fixed bug which hogged CPU while creating archive
  • Fixed bug which hung program if dar_manager returned an error
