Despite reading all the help files I have not figured out how to do this. Let's say I want to backup certain files or folders on my computer's C drive to an external hard drive F. I would like to do this every time on one backup that combines everything I'm interested in. How can I set up one back up eg: "Grand Master Backup" that takes everything I'm interested in on the right side and mirrors it to the left side? Right now I'm doing it one by one and I have multiple FreeFileSync icons on my desktop. As an unrelated question, do I need to care about the path names? For example, the first backup is coming from a very specific path name but I am putting it in a folder on the external drive with a very different name.
Right side:
C:\Users\ilan1\AppData\Roaming\ActiveWords 4\Backups
C:\Backups
C:\Photos\Home Photos\Family 2023
Left side:
F:\Activewords\ActiveWords BU
F:\Backups
F:\Photos\My Pictures\Family 2023
Extremely basic question from newbie
