Can someone suggest a good open source (free) file/folder backup program for Windows 7? I have an external USB 3.0 hard drive and I just want to run a scheduled nightly backup to it of important folders. I'd like it to be able to recognize which files have changed and only update (sync) the folders rather than copying everything over every night.
Thanks!
I use the free version, SyncBackFree

Robocopy is already included in Win7, but you need to know command line.

Otherwise, there are lots of sync apps out there.
