PC+ Back-Up to Carbonite

Post by UUCCGlenAllen »

Does anyone have any guidance, suggestions, or recommendations for setting up PC+ (loaded on a Windows 10 PC) to backup to the cloud, specifically Carbonite? Thank you.

What has been suggested in the past was that unless you can setup the 'cloud' server as a local folder or drive, as you can with Dropbox, it is not feasible at this time.

What I do is have Powerchurch backed up to our local NAS system, which is then backed up to Amazon Simple Storage.

Thank you!. We also use Dropbox. Do you have instructions on how I would use Dropbox?

Dropbox creates a folder on your local computer, using the FIle -> Preferenced -> System Setup menu, select the BACKUP tab, click on the Choose Folder button, and select that Dropbox folder.

It's usually located under the C:\Users\YourUsername directory.
