Backing Up Stardock Central, Object Desktop and everything else.
Tuesday, August 5, 2003 by bryanr72 | Discussion: Stardock Software
What is the most efficient way to backup everything? I keep my downloaded files on an external hard drive, in case of a virus or a hard drive crapping out in my computer. Do I just backup Program Files\Stardock folder? When I download programs from SDC, where are they kept, because I've noticed I do not have to run an .exe to get the program installed. Any info is appreciated!!
Thanks!!

Thanks for the response, but I'm wondering where the programs go when you download them from Stardock Central. There is a meter telling you how much you've downloaded, but I don't know where it's going. If my computer crashes, do I just re-install Stardock Central, then download all the programs again from there?

They archive to C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral\BACKUP.......you can then backup that file to where ever you want.

Tip 1.. When you have a download window open, right click on one of the apps........ you'll see an entry for Archive/Restore.
Tip 2.. Click Tools.... Settings.... Advanced tab... and you can choose where your downloads, and backups are saved.
Yer welcome!
