What's new in CyberLink PowerBackup 2.50.1305
May 20, 2010
- Application-specific backup features:
- PowerBackup 2 automatically lists the supported applications and lets you back up application-specific files without searching your computer to find them. Now you can back up OutlookOutlook Express emails, Internet Explorer's Favorites, and also files in Windows Address Book.
- Enhanced file filters:
- PowerBackup 2 includes different file filtering methods for more advanced file backup. Using file type groups allows you to select a file type (for example, image files) instead of selecting a long list of different image file types individually. You can also use the include or exclude filters. The include option allows you to include only the file types you select in the backup task. Similarly, the exclude option allows you to exclude selected file types from the backup. (You can further select registered file types or custom file types to your filter options.)
- Restore Tool:
- In PowerBackup 2, you can include the Restore Tool (in .exe form) together with the backed up files. In this case, the backed up files can be restored even if the PowerBackup 2 program is not installed on the target computer.
- More complete media support:
- Supports CD-RRW, DVD-RRW, DVD+RRW, DVD-RAM discs and the upcoming Blu-ray discs, as well as IDE or removable hard drives, Jazz drives, ZIP drives, Flash drives, and other PnP-compliant devices. With Blu-ray disc, you can carry 25GB of data on a single-layer disc media, however a Blu-ray compatible drive is required. PowerBackup 2 also supports burning double-layer 8.5GB DVD+R and DVD-R discs.
