Best way to back up?

Submitted by Gray on May 1, 2011 - 4:02pm

I seem to have lost my calendars in Sunbird somehow, I suspect by trying to sync PortableApps to my desktop and maybe it went in the wrong direction or something. In any case, they seem to be completely unretrievable. I have been very happy with using PortableApps, particularly Sunbird and the browser-based mail in Opera. What I would like to know is what is the best way to back up the whole PortableApps file to another drive, such as my regular desktop hard drive (I have PortableApps on a portable hard drive because I frequently use different computers).

Additional Apps

I write to inquire if one can install windows apps other than the default apps shown on this website. I would want to install some windows developer apps to a USB. Seeking an informed opinion. Much thanks as I await a reply.
