Backup to cloud?

Open swetepete opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Is this tool meant to be used to back passwords up to the cloud like a Google Drive or GitHub? Or to a local second drive or something?

Thank you

Hi @swetepete

This tool will create a LOCAL file for you. Nothing more. This is convenient because this 1 file has everything. If this single file is uncompressed it restores everything. Creating a backup e.g. every week will give you a weekly snapshot in a single file (per week), convenient.

You, as a user, can then take this 1 file and copy/sync it to your Google Drive or any cloud storage provider, or sync it with your Github repos.

You need to do the copying/sync, my tool just creates the single compressed backup file.
