[@Stu] Dropbox/Google Drive/OneDrive are slow because that’s how Dropbox/Google/Microsoft designed those cloud drives — it is not controlled by Replicaro. However, I am releasing v1.0.1 in a few hours that has a couple fixes that should speed up Google Drive connections.
Can you please indicate of there is a storage size limit? I could not find this critical info.
This info is very important for us users.
Thank you.As I understand it there is no size restriction on storage imposed by the program BUT individual cloud providers will have their own individual limits even if it’s just the amount of storage space you’ve rented from them!
the portable zip file is NOT portable because it extracts to “C:\Users\[WINDOWSLOGINNAME]\AppData\Local\Replicaro” and not to the location of the so called portable executable. I see no indication if this supports VSS to allow opening of in use files or real-time backups that monitor the jobs files and folders for changes and runs the backup job when a change is detected and only backs up the changes… This is NOT a standard backup program but is web page controlled locally hosted server based application NOT designed to operate as a windows service but a discrete program. When adding a vault and one is required to choose a location… the folder browsing user interface has no control to create a new folder and rename it. One can only choose from pre-existing folders. Entering a folder name manually in the path input box is ignored when i finally decide on a folder to use I get no initial warnings but when I try to make the vault I am confronted with an error warning:
“Replicaro requires an empty location to create a new vault, but the selected location is not empty. Select an empty subfolder within this location or select a different location.”
Errr why am I told that then and not when selecting the folder location? And obviously if this needs an empty folder then that information should given up front AND the UI should provide the facility to CREATE an empty new folder.
Also I chose a vault name that if it’s used in the naming of the vault in the filesystem should have produced an error “1st:vault” the colon character should not be usable as a file name, is there a need for sanity checks on the vault name? Answer no the vault name is not used in a file or folder name so can use special characters such as “:” etc. It is ONLY a manual or scheduled backupper and does not have a file/folder exclusion list when defining a backup set so programs that abuse the Documents folder by sticking executables and data files in subfolders of the logged in users Documents folder cannot be excluded from the backup set so all the more reason to never use pcwinsoft programs! as they waste Document backup space with program files and pirated copies of FFMPEG.EXE etc. I’ll stick with ashampoo backup pro 26 giveaway… I don’t think it does support VSS opened file access either but it does support real-time change monitoring and backing up and exclusion lists for unwanted data and executables placed in the wrong locations by bad developers. And does support a wide range of cloud storage providers out of the box.A bit of a bold statement “Replicaro: Best Cloud Backup App (100% discount)”
As it’s a first alpha release and open source always free. It’s certainly NOT the Best Cloud Backup App… HOW COULD IT BE? Does not support VSS or real-time backup jobs or file/filetype/folder exclusions or even new folder creation when defining a new vault. It has a long way to go just to be an adequate cloud backup “app” Did you program either of the two open source backup programs this uses or just the web-ui and server program? Shouldn’t there be some kind of secure login for this custom web server and maybe TLS1.2 support? Or is it security through obscurity… a non-standard http port number and that’s it?
I have created a vault on Google Drive (with Replicaro v1.0.1). However while connecting to it, and especially in the logs that appear after restoring files from the backup, I see this NOTICE:
“provider: This remote uses rclone’s shared Google Drive client_id, which is being retired and will stop working during 2026. Create your own client_id to avoid interruption: https://rclone.org/drive/#making-your-own-cient-id”.So, for the vaults created on Google Drive, do we really have to create our own client_id?
And, if we don’t, what will happen with our backups after rclone’s client_id stops working?
Also, if we do create our own client_id, but some time after rclone’s client_id stops working, will Google accept our own client_id?[@Charlie] This is something that is uncertain right now. Google is changing how they allow access to Google Drive’s API. If Google goes through with the changes, then Replicaro will be updated with the new directions on how to connect to Google Drive (you will need to create your own free client_id).
For now, just use Replicaro as normal. You will be able to easily switch to your own client_id without affecting your backups if Google makes the switch in the future. The client_id has nothing to do with your backups; it has to do with how the backups are accessed.

You have now released 1.0.1… are planning on publishing a dev history over what’s changed and what’s fixed or are you leaving us in the dark?
Does cloud storage cost nothing? Or to put it another way, how much does it cost?
[@Tudor] Replicaro does not charge you anything. The cost of cloud storage is whatever you pay to the cloud storage provider. So it depends on which one you pick. You can also use Replicaro to save your backups locally or on your network rather than the cloud.
I am willing to TRY new things, until they TRY me LOL. Until I get sick of them. the backup of 61GB has told me it WILL take 10 hours to process… I can backup locally 200GB in just over one hour from one SSD to another SSD using USB2, using Acronis True Image, which I paid for. My internet bandwidth allows 50MB/second, at top throttle, so why should a backup of 61GB take 10 hours? MASV can upload ONE 400MB file in 8 seconds!
Proper Question: how do i unplug it from Chrome browser so it doesn’t keep coming up?
[ @Ashraf] So why says it is $99? where did you get that figure from? a cloud provider? which one and how many GB does the $99 give you?
[ @Ashraf] What’s new in 1.0.2 that has now been released and will you put up a version history of the web interface replicaro?
Dal mio punto di vista ho constatato come giocare online
purtroppo richiede molta testa, poiché capita sovente di farsi prendere dall’ansia.Diversi utenti sostengono che le sale da gioco virtuali funzionino allo stesso modo, tuttavia le
cose cambiano radicalmente se si punta bookmaker certificati.
Parallelamente, ho letto su vai al sito dei suggerimenti davvero preziosi riguardo alla
gestione i propri fondi senza esagerare. Insomma, qual è la vostra opinione su
queste dinamiche? Succede pure a voi di perdere la lucidità
