Creating a rotating Backup for your files (2/3)
Rotating directories are used when you use one of the following placeholders in a path (preferably the target directory for the Copy / Overwrite operations):
- %HOUR%, %HOUR2%: Current hour, normal (0-23) / with leading 0 (00-23)
- %DAY%, %DAY2%: Current hour, normal (1-31) / with leading 0 (01-31)
- %WDAY_GER%, %WDAY_ENG%: Current weekday, German / English, complete word
- %WDAY_GER2%, %WDAY_ENG2%: Current weekday, German / English, 2 letters
- %MONTH%, %MONTH2%: Current month, normal (1-12) / with leading 0 (01-12)
- %MONTH_GER%, %MONTH_ENG%: Current month, German / English, complete word
- %MONTH_GER3%, %MONTH_ENG3%: Current month, German / English, 3 letters
Furthermore you can use a placeholder for time-independent rotation by using 2 characters, separated by a dash and enclosed by percent signs. Examples:
%1-3%
%A-F%
For each synchronization Easy2Sync “jumps” to the next value.
