How to create a backup/sync folder in Windows 10

[armoosead]

This might be a beginner question. I have a folder on one drive that I want synced and backed up to another folder on another drive. What is the best to do this in Windows 10. Rather than create a whole new file history. Is there a way to link or sync folders?

Thanks in advance

If you're interested in setting up a script you can always look up how to use robocopy. It's a command line tool, so it can be a bit cumbersome to set up for automated file copying if you're not used to it. If you want something more clickable, try googling for bvckup2. It's a super simple backup utility that essentially works like robocopy with a graphical interface.

create a robocopy script, and set it up as a scheduled task to run as needed.
