True. So, what do you copy with robocopy? The whole C: drive, or do you exclude well known folders such as Windows or Program files? That could be made an option to the UVK's backup feature.
One thing we humans have in common is that we are all different. So, if you think you're weird because you're different from everyone else, then we are all weird.

I wrote a script that uses robocopy to backup a work folder on a clients machine (exists outside of profiles as well) and have used it in a few other niche situations since then. I don't have anything bad to say about UVKs backup feature though. I didn't mean to offend if I did. I feel the pain on keeping music synced though. I don't think keeping only one copy is the best approach. That's begging for loss of data.

Oh, you didn't offend at all! I was just thinking about improving, that's all.
