Dropbox Automatic Backup

Using the dedicated "Dropbox" plug-in from Handy Backup, you can copy your files such as photo, documents, computer drive images, website content or just generic files, to a Dropbox account as a backup vault, or from this account to another place such as backup Dropbox to Google Drive.

Backup to Dropbox

Turn your Dropbox account to a widely available, secured backup vault. Unless other conditions specified, Handy Backup preserves native data formats in backups, allowing browsing and using any single file from a Dropbox backup dataset as a common file of this type.

Restoring from Dropbox

With a Handy Backup restoration task, you can return Dropbox backups to their original places, or set a new location to restore these data. Using the native data format, you can also copy or move files and folders from backup to any location you need.

Backup Dropbox Account

You can also back up a Dropbox account by itself. As Dropbox backup software, Handy Backup can automatically online backup Dropbox to external hard drive, to NAS or FTP server, to another cloud such as OneDrive, ownCloud or to a local drive folder on your computer.

Advantages and Features of Dropbox Backup with Handy Backup Solution

Handy Backup allows many features and provides some significant advantages for Dropbox automatic backup under any modern version of Windows, such as:

Scheduling tasks by time for an exact repeating period, or by some event;
Different backup methods (full, incremental, differential, mixed and versioned);
Using time stamps on backups to automate or just quicken data sorting;
Running other programs and utilities before or after executing a backup task;
Built-in compression and encryption algorithms.

These and many other features of Handy Backup allow significantly reducing operational time and efforts needed for backup, as well as saving much space in a backup vault.

Handy Backup Standard

The Standard solution allows you using Dropbox both as a storage for your backups and as a data source to keep copies of your crucial Dropbox data somewhere else.

How to Backup Dropbox with Handy Backup?

To create a backup task using Dropbox as a storage in Handy Backup, please follow the next guide:

Open Handy Backup and create a new backup task by clicking on a main panel button.
Select your dataset for backing it up on a Step 2.
Go to Step 3 and select a Dropbox feature.
Double-click on a "New configuration…" string. The program will open a Dropbox account interface to set up your access.

Enter your Dropbox account data in the appearing dialog window.
Allow Handy Backup using Dropbox. Return to the task creation wizard.

Continue creating a new backup task as described in the User Manual.
Finally, give your task a name and finish the task creation wizard.

That is all; your Dropbox-using backup task is ready and the program will start it by scheduled time or event. You can also start it manually at any time you feel it appropriate (e.g. just after creation, to test that all parts of a task were tuned up successfully).
