I need a software that can back-up my files to the computer once I insert a flash disk. I mean, I have documents that I save on a flash disk and I want an auto back up every time I insert my flash drive in to my computer. I do not want to do it manually since I forget at times. If there is any or a list of software please inform me and how it functions. If it is free, it will be better.

There are many software that automatically backup your files. Auto backup prevents loss of our important data due to OS problems like system crash and when we accidentally delete our most valuable files.
 
Most paid software are better than free software. They provide better utilities to users.
 
There is free software called ''Auto Backup Software''  which automatically backup all your files, file and folder selection criteria is built in, it has the ability to create self-restore archives.
 
You can also buy ''Second Copy®'' it can also backup your files automatically, it has the highest level of encryption, Unicode supported, nonproprietary format.
 
Hope this help.

If you want to automatically back up the files on your USB flash drive to your local hard drive every time the flash drive is inserted, here’s one cheap way to do it. Start Microsoft Notepad then copy and paste the following:

xcopy *.* C:\flashdrive1 /a
attrib -a /s

When you are finished, save the file with a BAT extension name like for example, without quotes “autoback.bat”. This saves the file as a batch file. Now, launch Windows Explorer then create a new folder on the root of drive C and name it without quotes “flashdrive1”. This is the folder name defined in the batch file with the xcopy command.

If you want to use a different folder name, make sure to also change the folder name in the batch file. When you are finished, copy the batch file to the root of the USB flash drive. After this, you need to create another file called “autorun.inf” which will be placed on the USB flash drive as well.

Again, start Microsoft Notepad then copy and paste the following:

[autorun]
open=autoback.bat

Replace “autoback.bat” with the file name of your batch file. When you are finished, save the file as without quotes “autorun.inf”. After this, copy “autorun.inf” to the root of your flash drive where your batch file is also located. And that’s it. Every time you insert your USB flash drive on your computer, it will automatically back up all the files that have changed on your flash drive to the folder you defined in the batch file.

Another way is to use third-party software like Allway Sync.
