This editor is used to perform the most complex BackUpTime action - copying the files (performing the backup).

As you can see in the picture above, there are two lists in the editor window, controls to edit them and some options. Let's have a closer look at the window, top to bottom. The list at the top is includes folders that you want to backup (copy). BackUpTime works with folders not files. On the left of the list there are some controls to modify it:

Button	Description
	Add a new folder to the list.
	Add a new custom folder to the list.
	Change the selected folder settings (filters etc.). If you click this buton while holding the SHIFT key, the editor of the folder-specific settings will open (if it is a Dynamic or a Custom folder).
	Remove the selected folder from the list (it is not physically deleted from your hard drive).

Notice : All folder options can be accessed via the list context menu.

The bottom list is a list of destination folders to copy the data specified in the top list to. BackUpTime will backup (copy) all the folders in the top list into EVERY FOLDER in the bottom list. Use the Folder Editor to adjust the folders settings. You can specify there whether to copy only the contents of the folder or to create the corresponding subfolder in each of the destination folders, and whether to include subdirectories or not. That is, BackUpTime will create identical copies of the data specified in the top list in every folder specified in the bottom list. Here goes a description of the controls on the left of the list:

Button	Description
	Add a new folder to the list.
	Add a new dynamic folder to the list.
	Change the selected folder settings (filters etc.). If you click this buton while holding the SHIFT key, the editor of the folder-specific settings will open (if it is a Dynamic or a Custom folder).
	Remove the selected folder from the list (it is not physically deleted from your hard drive).

Notice : All folder options can be accessed via the list context menu.

Copy only new and modified files / folders - This option saves your time. Check the box to copy only the files that have been modified or created after your last backup. All other files are left intact.
Copy if size of the files has been changed - Check the box to copy files when their size does not match.
Alias - Specify a name here or keep the default one.
Description - A brief memo.
