Zinc-Backup — Professional Data Backup for Windows, Linux and macOS

Zinc-Backup is a powerful and user-friendly backup solution for home users and small businesses. With a modern interface and comprehensive features, Zinc-Backup protects your data reliably — fully automatically in the background.

Flexible File Backup
Create as many backup plans as you need with flexible options: Mirror (exact copy), incremental backup or archiving. Plans can be grouped into projects and run at the click of a button or automatically on a schedule. File pattern exclusions, real-time progress display and automatic logging are included.

E-Mail Backup via IMAP
Back up your e-mails directly from the mail server — all IMAP providers are supported (Gmail, Outlook, custom servers). Choose your output format freely: ZIP archive, Maildir or individual EML files. Optional date range, incremental backup (new messages only) and synchronisation between two mailboxes complete the feature set.

Folder Comparison & Synchronisation
The built-in comparison wizard shows differences between two folders at a glance — by content, size or timestamp. Copy or move differences in either direction with a single click. Results can be exported as CSV.

Fully Automatic Operation
Zinc-Backup can run as a Windows Service (even without a logged-in user), via Windows Task Scheduler, systemd timer (Linux) or Cron (macOS/Linux). Once set up, everything runs without any intervention.

Cross-Platform
Natively available for Windows 10/11, Linux (glibc 2.29+) and macOS (Apple Silicon & Intel). No installation required — simply unzip and launch.

Secure & Transparent
All backups are logged and viewable at any time. E-mail passwords are stored encrypted. If problems arise, the built-in bug report wizard automatically creates a diagnostic package for support.

Zinc-Backup requires a licence and is hardware-bound. A free demo with full functionality (4-minute time limit) is available for download.

⚠ Already using Zinc-Backup 1.2.0? Before updating (Settings → Check for update), please back up the "data" folder in the program directory (copy it elsewhere). From version 1.3.0 onwards this risk is gone for good — the update from 1.2.0 is the only affected step.

Messionaire — The Digital Organiser
Order at the click of a button. For Windows, macOS and Linux.
Messionaire is a powerful desktop tool that transforms your digital chaos into organised structures — automatically, safely and at lightning speed.

What Messionaire can do

📁 Sort & Rename

Automatically sort files into folders by type, date or custom rules. Batch renaming with regex, numbering and date prefix — previewed live before anything happens.

🔍 Find Duplicates

The MM-Sniper detects duplicate files by content (SHA-256/BLAKE3) — even if the names differ. Saves storage space without data loss.

📄 PDF Renaming with Masks

PDFs are automatically analysed and named by title, author and date. For consistently structured documents (invoices, contracts), visual zones can be drawn directly on the document.

🖼 Photo Sorting

Read EXIF dates, move photos into year/month folders, detect duplicates.

📦 Archives & Extractor

Unpack, verify and recreate ZIP, RAR and 7-Zip archives — with password support.

🎵 Music Tags

Rename MP3, FLAC, OGG and M4A files by ID3 tags. Edit tags directly, display album artwork.

📊 Statistics & Maintenance

Visualise directories as a treemap, clean up empty folders and temp files, verify file extensions for correctness.

Safety First
All operations can be previewed with a dry run — nothing is changed until you explicitly confirm it. Every action is logged.
⚠ Use at your own risk. Create a backup before first use. The author accepts no liability for data loss.

Zinc-Backup FRAMY Edition — the same backup, a new interface
Professional data backup for Windows 10/11, with the newly developed, faster FRAMY interface. Same licence model as Zinc-Backup (Qt Edition) — an existing licence works for both editions.

Flexible File Backup
Any number of backup plans with flexible options: Mirror (exact copy), incremental backup or archiving. Plans can be grouped into projects and run at the click of a button or on a schedule.

E-Mail Backup via IMAP
Back up e-mails directly from the mail server, with a mailbox viewer (view, search and save attachments from ZIP/MBOX/Maildir), import into a target account, and batch sync with quick selection of existing accounts.

Address Book & Settings
Build an address book from sent e-mails (CSV, vCard). Back up and restore settings and jobs, password-protected.

Fully Automatic Operation
Taskbar and tray icon, in-app self-update, mirror delete protection and plan locking against double runs, real schedules for e-mail jobs.

Switching from the Qt Edition
The installer replaces an existing Zinc-Backup installation and keeps your settings, plans, accounts and licence unchanged.

Zinc-Backup requires a licence and is hardware-bound. A free demo (4 minutes) is available for download.
