Nothing fancy here, just a simple script that you can run from the start menu startup folder or add to a login script. It checks to see who is logged in and if it is Friday, then it copies their favorites folder to their network share. Obviously variations on it can be used to backup other data. I chose Friday so that it would backup not too often, but not too rarely either ie monthly.
Needed something like this at work as we don't have roaming profiles and our users can often have many favorites. If a machine goes down it is nice to know we've got their data backed up. I wrote another one that copies key Notes 6.5 files such as the user id, address book etc and you could certainly get the desktop as well but sometimes people store too much junk on there.
