Backup your files for Mac, Windows, and Linux!
Internxt Drive has a backup feature that allows you to make backup copies of your files and folders on the Mac, Windows, or Linux desktop app.
Backups are available on all Internxt paid plans, which you can view from our pricing page.
Please note that backups are not included in plans bought from resellers.
For more information on how Internxt can help protect your files with its backup features, check out our cloud storage backup solutions page.
You can manage and view your backups from the Web app, but backups must be created on the desktop app first.
Backups allow saving copies of folders of the user's choice periodically. They are stored indefinitely until they are replaced by a newer copy.
Backups can only be initiated from a desktop device. You may access your backed-up files by clicking the “Backups” tabs and selecting the device backup you wish to access.
How to back up your files on the Internxt desktop app for Mac
Ensure you have the most recent version of the app installed.
Open the app, and go to > "Settings" ⚙️ > "Preferences" on the top right.
Click "Backup now" or "Change folders" to select the folders you want to backup.
Once you have added your folders, select "Backup now" to back up your files.
Once the process is complete, your files will backup successfully.
You can then tap “Backup now” or select the drag-down box to enable a backup frequency for every 6 hours, every 12 hours, every day, or manual backups.
To delete files from backup click "Change files", right click the file you want to delete, and select "Delete".
To add new files, click "Change files" and add your folders as above.
If you would like to see where your files are backed up, log in to Internxt Drive on web, and click "Backups".
You can also delete backups by clicking on the three dots (...) icon to the left of the device name and selecting “Delete”.
You can back up as many devices as you want at the same time.
Other related points to consider:
Backup changes on directories are not automatic, you must manually choose which files you want backed up to your account.
To pause a backup, you must click on the "Stop" button after initiating a backup.
Backups can be downloaded via the Web or Virtual Drive apps at the moment, and unlike standard files, they have no download limit because we use new APIs implemented by some browsers.
It's impossible to move already uploaded material from Drive to Backup so as not to have to upload everything again.
Through Drive Web, you can download any file from the backup, simply by choosing the ones you wish to download.
