Polderbackup. Solves major problem."How do

I have ever come across, working easily and reliably without
unnecessary frills. Thank you for all your work in producing it. I am
sorry to hear that you won't be developing or supporting it further,

users don't bother to read the manual!

I use this excellent, simple program to do ALL of my data
backups. Much safer than progs that create a single, proprietary
file. Polder saves much time because it only copies new files -- but
it can also delete old files on the destination. Very robust -- will
handle 1000's of files when other utils choke. Simple and easy to use
but more flexible than many backup programs and sync utils. Thank you
for the great program!

There is not much left on the wishlist, so it's a good time to let it

Just a thank-you. This is a great little program that I
used a little here and there. (I stopped using it mostly because I
went to imaging for my backups). None of that accurately reflects
that you did a great job with this prog...it does everything I would
expect it to, and it does it well! I especially liked the fact that
it saves to multiple zips instead of one gigantic zip. Bravo! I am
downloading the last version in case I should have need again in the
future as this is the best I have found in it's class (even competing
with paid programming).
Sorry so many users can't read and turned it into work for you instead of fun. Best wishes in your future projects. Merry Christmas and God bless you!

At last, i find a backup utility that dont make
only one zip file. The best for security. A suggest: To copy the
backup files to CDW, sometimes, i have problems because the path is
to much long. If the program will make only one zip file if the depth
of directories are more long that 8 ,ISO9960,Polder will be the best.

Thank you for PolderBackup. Whenever anyone asks
what backup utility they should use I always refer them to yours.
Simple, efficient, straightforward, and most importantly backs up to
actual files that people understand rather than wierd compressed .bku
files (or whatever) that can't be recovered without proprietary
software. I use it every week to back up my personal system, and I
use it for one-time transferrings of large directory structures.
Top notch! I'm glad to have this in my toolbelt.

Brilliant - after searching for ages, I was thinking of
writing my own utility.
Polder backup does exactly what I would have written.
the only thing I would improve is to have an option to combine small groups of files into one zip file. I backup a lot of small files, and this would reduce slack on the disk I am backing up to by utilisng the clusters more effectively.

what I can use, I also take care of stray cats (3) so you have my
attention and your heart must be in the right place, which in turn
produces great work. Thank you and I'll let you know how I do when I
have accomplished my "BACKUP"

Seemed to work to the A drive. It would not
use the disk more than once though. Even though the file was
compressed to only 2 or 3% of the capacity of the disk, when backing
up another file (a single page of text) to the disk I got a "the
disk is full" error. Any ideas?

To Polder: I realize that the c_ on the
desktop was my entire C drive. Ploder compressed it to about 4 gigs.
I don't have any other drive to back up on, since Polder will not
support CD/RW and it would take a long time anyhow. Eventually I hope
to back up to a seperate hard drive. At this point I'm just tryinf to
teach myself to use it, as I said, it was an experiment. I'll try
backing a small file to my A drive and see how it goes...

Where do you think your desktop is located? Maybe
somewhere on the C-drive? And what do you think will happen when you
try to backup your entire C-drive on a place on your c-drive?
Philosophical question maybe, but you should ask yourself these
thinks before you try to secure important things!

I can't figure it out. I chose the desktop
for my destination, and what appeared was the little cat icon, and a
folder titled c_. Since I backed up the C drive as an experiment, I
guess that is what that is. Now, how do I back up incrimentally? the
help file says to just double click on the polder icon, but nothing
happens and I get a "polder backup has an error and will be shut
down". How can I fix this?

It gives me memories:as I was born at Amsterdam, as a
child I had to bring little kittens to the Polderweg! So these are
not nice memories although it was necessary at that time: at home we
had sometimes 8 cats! I do have 4 now - and that is enough- I do not
go to these places because I would take all these poor creatures
home! although when I sometimes go back to Amsterdam for shopping I
pass by the Polderweg; my grandmother lived on the other side of the
railway, the 3rd floor so for me it is a special place, a special
name and a special memory!

Beste Gerwin,
Ik gebruik nog steeds met veel plezier je uitstekend programma PolderBackup. De allerlaatste versie (PolderBackup 2.7) heb ik nu pas gedownload, dus daar kan ik nog geen advies over geven. Zoals ik je vroeger reeds mailde vind ik (en niet ik alleen te zien aan de commentaren in het gastenboek) het nog steeds spijtig dat er geen nederlandse vertaling van bestaat. Wij nederlandstaligen hebben al zo weinig de mogelijkheid om iets in onze taal op de kop te tikken buiten de duurbetaalde commerciële soft. Al bij al toch een uitstekend programma (zelfs onze hond Snuffel is het daarmee eens [lol], waarvoor onze grote dank. Misschien kan je ook de mogelijkheid voorzien (zoals reeds velen andere ontwerpers van freeware doen) dat vrijwilligers kunnen vertalen voor jou!!!!

Hello: Just tried the program and I love it. I
only have one request if it is even possible.
I am using windows xp and have found that when adding files from accross the network to a backup on another machine the program wants to backup the entire file list each time. If you have any suggestions please post them on your website.
This is not a problem as long as the process it totally on one computer only. Just over the network.
Please be assured that even with this little glitch this is still the best backup program I have ever found, espically for the price.

Finally found backup software that does exactly what I
require it to do. After evaluating several backup programs I found it

First-class software. It does a vital job
quickly, cleanly and well. The only (not very) hard part is building
some backup templates to tell Polder B/U what to save and where to
save it. Add a shortcut to a template, and it will take you just two
clicks to back up everything. Even better, the backup is an ordinary
.zip file, so all you need to restore it on any computer is an unzip
utility. Thanks and congratulations, Gerwin, for a program that's
outstanding in every way.

Hi, just tested Polderbackup. The tool is great thank
you.
If you don't mind here are two suggestions: a) enable drag and drop for folders and files to be added to the back up list. If you have a lot of different folders or files to backup using currently provided way of adding them to the list is very tedious (since you not even can select multiple files and folders). b) when you have to backup a lot of files and directories, polderbackup doesn't update the display for several minutes and seems to be crashed. So a progress bar while collecting the information about which files/directories to backup would be nice.
Cheers, Sebastian

Great program. Was good for synchronising two
computers via CDRW (until I got Windows XP). Keep on keeping on.

I have found Poulderbackup to be a very useful
and easy to use tool in maintaining the secure feeling in having
current backup files to my data. Less than a minute a day is spent on
updating all of my backup libraries.

I hope
someone somewhere is paying you alot of money. I have bought software
not even close to as good as this. Congratulations on writing a very
useful piece of software.
Thank You...
