Note: Files stored on different source drives cannot be archived in the same Back Up Files project.
4Select the types of files you wish to archive. Choose either All files in the selected path or Only files in the following categories.
If you selected Only files in the following categories, select the file categories you would like to archive. The choices are Email, Financial, Music, Photos, Productivity, and Video and Recorded TV. If you created a custom category, it will also be available. See “Creating a custom category” on page 15 for more information.
Note: Hold your mouse pointer over an icon to see the category it represents.

When you click a date in the calendar, the date is automatically entered into the date box.
