Then Select where you want your backup to be saved. You can select a Network place as well. Then backup name and click "Next"

Click Advanced if you want to schedule the backup or select the backup type.

First Select the Type of backup you want to do
Normal - Backup selected files and Mark each file as backed up
Copy - Backup selected files, but does not mark as backed up.

Then Schedule it and test it whether it backs up properly or not by restoring it to another area.
