How to Backup My Music Folder Using Handy Backup

Creating an audio backup task is quite simple. Open Handy Backup and create a new task by clicking on an icon or by pressing Ctrl+N. Then use the following sequence of actions

On Step 1, select a backup task. Do not mark an advanced setup checkbox unless you need it!
On Step 2, click on the My Music item in the Windows Libraries list.

Note: You can use the Computer plug-in and File filters option instead, to find music backup files in other locations (e.g., for making some external audio manager backup). This requires using advanced mode on Step 1. For details, please refer to the User Manual.

Select music files for backup and click OK to return to the Step 2 window.
Enter file masks for your music backup, divided by semicolon.

Click OK and return to the Step 2 window. Double-click on the “Computer” option.
Select folders to process. Otherwise, Handy Backup will find all files by masks.
Now select a destination for your music files.
Set up other task parameters as described in the User Manual. That is all!

Backup Music to Cloud

If your plan to backup music online (or from online sources, such as backup music to Google Drive or Amazon S3), you will need to establish a connection between the chosen online storage and Handy Backup. The program requires this operation only once, unless you will change your storage.

Nowadays, cloud storage can be a best way to backup music files online. Therefore, if you do not want to use commercial services to backup My Music content, you can use a private, WebDAV-driven cloud such as OwnCloud, and a NAS or data server to operate it.

What Are the Clouds Where I Can Backup My Songs

Desides Google Drive and Dropbox options discussed before, Handy Backup provides many other cloud solutions to backup music. These are generic S3-driven clouds, dedicated solutions such as Amazon S3, common clouds such as OneDrive, and some regional or dedicated storage solutions.
