We have an application that outputs PDF files to a directory on a server.<br />
<br />
If users delete the PDF files from within the application, they will also be deleted on the server. I want to let the users have this kind of access, but I don't want to actually lose any of the files that were created.<br />
<br />
I would like to find an application that monitors this folder and automatically makes a copy of new files as they are created and dumps them in another folder.<br />
<br />
This file copier would need to run in the backgroud as a service and not be dependent on &nbsp;administrator intervention.<br />
<br />
Can anyone recommend anything?<br />
<br />
Thanks!

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
