FAQ:

Q:If I purchase one license can I activate on two computers?

MCBS is licensed per computer. If you want to run it on two computers you need to buy an additional license.

Q:Will MCBS copy opened files?

Yes, MCBS leverages Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Technology to backup opened files.

Q: How secure is my data?

MCBS offers several industry standard strong encryption algorithms to protect your data.

Q: Does MCBS copy all files every time it runs?

No, MCBS identifies files modified since the last backup and only copies those files. This makes subsequent backups run much faster.

Q: Can MCBS copy only the modified portion of a file? I want to backup my Outlook PST file, but it is 2GB and I don’t want to copy the whole file every time.

This is called block-level backup and is fully supported with MCBS.

Q: Does MCBS keep older versions of the file?

Yes, this feature gives you the ability to restore a file to a certain point in the past.

Q: If I delete a file on my local computer is it also deleted from backup storage?

By default, the file will stay on the online storage for 30 days to prevent accidental deletion. We call it Smart Delete.

Q: Can I copy the data immediately as it changes (e.g. new files are added or existing files are modified)?

Yes, this is called Continuous Data Protection, also known as Real-time backup. You can select this option in the Backup Wizard.

Q: Does MCBS support MAC OS X?

No, Windows only.
