I would like to request that you add an option to backup all .exe files in the PA folder. This would be useful after recovering from a virus (something I've had to do two times today).

I don't want to backup everything, just the .exe files.
Anyways.. I made a job in Toucan to do this, but I still think it would be usefull to add it to the PA backup program.
Too specialized and will just confuse novices (which the Platform is designed for, first and foremost). A special case like this is exactly the reason Toucan exists in the first place.
