HP SIMPLESAVE BACKUP SOFTWARE
USER MANUAL
MY OPTIONS – 9
My Options
HP SimpleSave has several options for backup plan customization. To access the
options page, click
My Options
in the HP SimpleSave welcome screen.
File Types & Locations
HP SimpleSave automatically backs up the most common file types on your
computer’s primary hard drive by default. You can use the
File Types & Locations
option to modify these settings.
Click
Search only these locations
to specify specific drives or folders you want
HP SimpleSave to back up. If you only wanted to back up the “My Documents” folder,
you can back up only that folder and no others.
If you want to specify only certain file types to be backed up, use the “+” to navigate
to the type of file you want to back up and check the blue box to select the file type.
For example, you may want to back up all of your content except videos, in which case
you would deselect the Video Files box.
Note:
These settings will remain saved even if you unplug your HP SimpleSave drive.
