PolderBackup

PolderBackup is a lightweight Windows application whose purpose is to help you back your files and directories using straightforward actions.

Simple looks

The utility sports a clean layout that allows you to keep a list with all backup templates. Templates are used for storing the files and folders that you want to include in a backup. This way, you can keep track of multiple backup sets and activate only the one that you need.
A multi-tabbed environment is implemented for helping you access the configuration settings. The utility also keeps logs which include detailed information about the errors and backed up items.

Backup options

PolderBackup gives you the possibility to select the files and folders that you want to include in the backup, remove some of the items in case you change your mind, and pick the saving directory where the backup is stored.
What’s more, you are allowed to apply file filters, exclude certain items from the backup, include subdirectories, choose the compression level, and opt for incremental backups.
The utility lets you delete redundant files (there are sent to the Recycle Bin so you can easily recover them in case they are deleted accidentally), and check out a list with files to copy and remove some of them.
Last but not least, you can view a list with all copied items, restore missing or selected files, as well as overwrite or ask for your permission in case of file conflicts.

Bottom line

All things considered, PolderBackup can be used for simple backup tasks. Although it is not equipped with advanced tools and modern looks, it gets the job done quickly and allows the creation of multiple profiles.
