Confused with back ups??

Well, achieving a 1:1 copy of a now currently dupeable protection, is dependant on software and hardware, that is, you need the appropriate hardware (i.e burner/reader/media) combination and the right software to work with the hardware (i.e. clonecd, blindwrite, cdmate, etc, etc, etc).

First, you need to determine if your current software and hardware meet the above criteria and then, as with most else, do some reading, research the matter for yourself, then proceed to the trial and error phase, from which you will ultimately know what will work best for you and your particular setup.

Also, use a good protection scanner (i.e. clony, yaps, etc).

I suggest, you use this forum's search feature, most if not all, your questions will be answered.
