Backuper App


[ver 1.2] Python Backup Utility for Windows Powershell. Built to backup user directories in the windows user directory.

Source: Depends on username as defined in windows [case insensitive].

Destination: Depends on drive that you want to backup to, in this drive a 'BACKUP' folder will be created. In 'BACKUP', a folder followed by a datestamp, will be created for every backed up folder.

Then select the folder you would like to backup, in the current version only Music, Documents, Pictures folders are able to be backed up, it is simple to tweak this to be able to take any folder from user input or arguments, my reasoning to only allow these folders was to make it quick and with minimal hustle for my needs.

-- It will skip any file that already exists in the destination folder -- It will not be able to handle files with non simple latin characters

Future improvements:

  • Add a feature to update files, not only add new ones
  • Fix the decoding issue
