You can also add files and folders to your backup list by right-clicking on the file or folder. If you add a file to a folder that has already been added to your backup list, the file is automatically backed up in the next scheduled backup.

Files that are included as part of your backup list will have a little icon next to the file informing you that the file or folder has already been added to your backup list.

2.Right-click the file or folder you want to add, then click Add to Lenovo Online Data Backup backups.

The file or folders is added to your backup list, and is backed up the next time a scheduled backup occurs.
