Syncback is a good free solution for windows, and you can schedule or run manually.

Normally I use rsync & rsnapshot for all of our backup jobs, .. but I 
have friends that are wanting to use their USB backup drives at home 
and I would like something more user friendly for backing up their 
documents. [Windoze machines, obviously.[

Can anyone recommend a simple, OS tool for 'user controlled' 
backups?  Where the user can click an icon and [rsync?] their 
documents folder to an external drive? Simple install without the 
shell setup required of cwrsync?

	Thanks!

	Lee
