What is a Profile
A profile is a logical grouping of files that a user wants to backup. Every profile can contain unlimited number of files. When you first use Syncrify client, it automatically creates a profile with the same name as machine's host name.
Following image displays a screen shot of Syncrify client.
The image above shows:
- Syncrify client is connecting to a server by the name dellu on port 5800
- User has created a profile called DataBackup and it will backup files in the following folders:
- C:\Temp
- C:\data\temp
- C:\ThurnderbirdProfile\Profiles
- C:\tutorial
- To exclude any file from getting backed up, navigate to it and un-check the box next to it.
