Why Backup Your Favorites ?

If you have been using the Internet for some time, you would have no doubt added shortcuts to many of your favorite websites to your Favorites. Over time, it could grow to hundreds, even thousands of shortcuts that are properly organized in your Favorites according to your own needs.

Now, imagine if something happens to your computer and you lose all the shortcuts in your Favorites. There is no doubt it would take a lot of your time and effort to search for the links to your favorite sites and adding it back to your Favorites, and all the hassle of re-organizing your shortcuts just the way you like it. In some cases, you might never be able to re-locate the links again if that website is not listed on search engines.

That is why you should backup your Favorites. PicoBackup's My Favorites plugin makes it extremely easy for you to do so. It will display all your Favorites in a tree view where you can uncheck shortcuts that you do not wish to backup. If you want to backup everything, there is nothing more to do.

And because you are using PicoBackup, you can use PicoBackup's integrated scheduler to automatically schedule a backup of your Favorites at regular intervals to ensure it is always kept up to date.
