How does Giga Vault Storage do Open File Backups?

When Giga Vault Storage backs up a file, it can detect automatically if the file has been changed. Hence Giga Vault Storage can ensure that no file is backed up incorrectly. For files that change during a backup, Giga Vault Storage does a best effort attempt continuously (in the background) until the backup for the file succeeds. In a desktop/laptop environment this strategy almost never fails. However, it is important that Giga Vault Storage be allowed the requisite permission to access the file(s) that are to be backed up. For example, Microsoft Outlook cannot be backed up if it is open as Giga Vault Storage cannot access the requisite files (Please click here to understand how Giga Vault Storage works around this problem) The best way to handle open file backups is to use Giga Vault Storage’s Open File Plugin.
