Backing Up Your Data

Backing Up Your Data

On Vista/Windows 7, the definitions of your saved pages from Internet Owl are stored in this directory:
 
C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Spiral Software\Internet Owl\2.0
 
where USERNAME is whatever you login as.
 
If you are using XP, the directory is slightly different:
C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\Application Data\Spiral Software\Internet Owl\2.0
 
You should ensure this directory is backed up.
 
Need a free back program? You can try the freeware Syncback
For my own backup needs, I use a combination of the commercial programs SyncBack SE, Acronis trueimage and dropbox.
Large external USB hard drives are now really cheap, so you really owe it to yourself to backup your data regularly.

  1. Just wanted to say what a excellent tool Internet Owl is does exactly what it says on the tin perfect solution.
    What would be fantastic is if the program could run as a service instead of having to ensure a user is always logged on.
