Daily backup with Windows XP Pro: separate backups each working day

[Tom]

Hi,

I would like to schedule a task to run each day, which would backup some
files from the computer drive to an external HD. However, I would ideally
like to have a backup folder/file per day of the week, rather than overwrite
the last backup each day.

For instance, I would have on the external drive the following folders:

Backup-Monday
Backup-Tuesday
Backup-Wednesday
Backup-Thursday
Backup-Friday

Only the following week the day would get overwritten (so it gives us one
week to notice an issue).

Do you know if this possible to achieve with the standard backup tool in XP?

Thanks,
Tom

Try a program called Second Copy 2000. Much better than windows will
probably ever be when it comes to backups.
