    摘要: Generally described, embodiments of the present invention provide a system and method for determining what files of a consumer computer should have protection copies included in a backup and what files should be excluded from the backup. Additionally, embodiments of the present invention provide a method and system for recovering files and/or directories from multiple types of temporal versions, such as backup copies and total copies, and also provide the ability to recover from either local temporal versions or remote temporal versions. Still further, embodiments of the present invention provide the ability to only create a protection copy for a portion of a file that has changed since a previous protection copy of a file was created and stored.

    摘要: Described is a system and method for allowing applications to interact with a common backup program in a uniform way. The system and method provides a communication mechanism for one or more applications to exchange information with the backup program regarding components of the applications. The information exchanged may include an identification of the components of each application. A component may be considered a group of files or resources that should be backed up or restored together. In this way, when a backup operation is initiated, each application may provide to the common backup program instructions describing the specific components to be backed up. In addition, each application may add other application-specific information useful during a restore of the backed up data.

    摘要: A method and system for backing up and restoring data. First, a full backup is performed to create a full dataset. Thereafter, incremental or differential datasets may be created by incremental or differential backups, respectively. When a new full dataset is needed, instead of performing a full backup, a previous full dataset may be combined with subsequent incremental or differential datasets to create the new full dataset. The new full dataset may be created on a computer other than the computer which hosts the data of the previous full dataset. The new full dataset may be used for offsite storage or to quickly restore data in the event of a failure or corruption of a computer's file system.
