Best Backup/ Restore Program for APP4

[niceboyyy]

Greetings,

What is the best backup/ restore program functioning well with AP4?

[marka2k]

I am using Sprite Backup 5.02 with no problems others have said they had issues but I am not sure of the version they were referring to.

I have used Sprite Backup ver 6.2 and it works fine.

Cheers

I used sprite backup 5.1 with no problems to sd card but on trying to backup the microdrive to my desktop , the microdrive got trashed and i couldnt access any of the files.

I use SPB Backup, it works fine on 4.0 and it has an external archive viewer, extracter and other desktop utilities that makes it a simple win for me. I also enjoy the desktop plugin that lets you know when its time to backup, how long since last backup or to schedule new back-ups in the future...

Hope this helps,
Bob

After reading some says SpriteBack 6.2 works fine with AP4, I tried it with unexpected result. When I restored, I discovered that VueFlo which has been disabled before Backup, it becomes active again after Restore, and some apps which I have entered the serial numbers, but still asked me to enter the serial numbers. However, SpriteBack 6.2 says successfully restored without giving any warning. I got a feeling to be cheated. The worst of that, in one of restoring process, SpriteBack 6.2 kills 2/3 of my files in MicroDrive, again without giving any warning report. Such things never happens to AP 3.0 SpriteBack in AP3 Addons file although it gives some warning relating to T9, but you can have 100% resote including your setting in VueFlo. The best of that, after AP 3.0 SpriteBack in AP3 Addons file is installed, it shows "SpriteBack 5.11, Authorized Version". But after you install SpriteBack 6.2, and remove. If you install AP 3.0 SpriteBack again, it only shows you have ten days for trial no matter you installed in MicroDrive or in the device. You have to hardreset and restore backup file before you installed SpriteBack 6.2. Fortunately enough, I have full back, those miserable things did not happen to me. But those wish to try SpriteBack 6.2 have to be very careful, the rule of thumb is to have a full backup.
