Recommended simple Folder and Files Backup Programs??

[Sam]

I currently have a Dell Dimension 8200 computer with window XP Pro
installed. For specific folders and files, I use the AKGBackup Program and
it has worked well for me, especially since it is so easy to use and I can
access
any backed up folder or file with just windows explorer. I don't need a lot
of features.

In the very near future, I plan to purchase a new Dell computer with Vista
Business Edition. I would appreciate any comments, suggestions, and
recommendations concerning any simple folder/file backup programs (Vista
compatible) that is similar to the AKGBackup program. I should note that
the AKGBackup program web site does not indicate if it works with Vista (the
last time I checked). I should also note that I have researched a bit about
windows
Live OneCare and it appears to be somewhat lacking. Thanks for any help,
Sam.

P.S For Imaging, I currently use the Symantec Livestate Recovery Desktop
Edition for my
current computer and plan to purchase the ShadowProtect Desktop Edition for
my new computer.

Thanks very much for your replies. Sorry that I did not make it clear, but
I don't have any problems in selecting a good image program (Symantec
Livestate Recovery Desktop Edition which I now successfully use and
ShadowProtect Desktop Edition which has good ratings and good comments from
individual users)

My concern is finding a simple file and folder backup program that will let
me select the files and folders by name or path and not by file extension as
it appears to be the only option in windows file backup. Thanks, again,
Sam.

Hi Sam,

Rest assured that AKGBackup will work with Vista as well.
