Easy Backup 2025 is a simple file sync app -- it backs up files/folders you select to another, usually external drive. Some people might prefer it to for example the file sync in AOMEI Backupper, since Easy Backup is a much smaller app. Installation adds the program's folder in Program Files (x86), a folder in Users\ [UserName]\ AppData\ Local\, and 9 fonts. Impact on Windows registry is really minimal, though it does cause a rewrite of the Driver hive so there is a bit of churn.
Besides the obvious alternative of just copying whatever to a USB stick yourself, Windows still has File History backup, though they've taken steps to hide it in Win11 24H2, so it might be on the chopping block in the future. To find it you have to go to Control Panel -- NOT the full Control Panel listing everything -- click System and Security, then File History. You set it up with a USB stick/drive, selecting the files/folders you want to back up, and it'll do the rest whenever you plug that drive/stick in. You can also set a symbolic link or junction from the folder you want to back up to a folder that syncs automatically to the cloud. You can make such a link from a folder you want to backup in the Users\ [UserName]\ OneDrive\ folder for example, and that folder will be backed up to your OneDrive account.
