With Titan Backup you can create backups of your most important files and folders, registry keys, email and mail settings and general user settings. Titan Backup can create backups of email and mails settings of the following mail clients: Microsoft Office Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, Opera Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird.

The source items are displayed in a tree view, that shows also the original structure of that item. The actual selected item will have a colored icon, and the entire path to it will be presented in gray icons ( a gray icon represents a sub-structure that will not be entirely saved, only the parts of it, that have a colored icon ).

Titan Backup offers you the possibility to filter the files and folders selected as source of your backup: set up inclusion or exclusion masks. A mask is a predefined list of file extensions that can be used as reference in filtering the source files. You can apply an inclusion or exclusion mask to your files or define searchable mask as source of your backup.

• inclusion masks: when you apply an inclusion mask you choose to include in the backup only the file types that are defined in the mask. 
• exclusion masks: when you apply an exclusion mask you choose to backup all the source files except the file types defined in the mask.

To apply an inclusion/exclusion mask to the source files of a backup task follow these steps:

1. From the Source tab click Files/Folders button 
2. Click Files Mask button. 
3. Choose an inclusion or/and an exclusion mask to apply from the list of masks (click >> button to see this list). 
4. Click Add button to add the mask to the list of applied masks (you can apply more then one mask at the same time). 
5. Click Replace button to replace the current list of applied masks with the new selected mask.

You can also define a searchable mask as your Backup source. When you define searchable mask as source of your Backup, the task scan you system for files defined in the mask. Searchable Mask is a predefined list of file extensions that can be used as reference in scanning process.

In this way, you can for example backup all you music files from your PC.
