Automatic backup means quick recovery for your most important files
One-time setup keeps files stored across devices—like your computer and external drive—safe in one place.
Getting back up and running works just the way it should—quickly and easily. Start recovery with just a few clicks, and your files will be automatically restored from cloud backup.
Just as you’d expect from Dropbox, you can easily access backed up files any time, anywhere—from your computer, through our mobile app, or on the web.
You can restore your files to a new computer to get your shiny new laptop up and running with ease—no complicated or slow manual connections from computer to computer.
Dropbox Backup takes the complexity out of safeguarding and recovering files, giving you one place to check progress, view deleted files, and choose which folders to back up.
Your files will be restored to their original locations quickly, and based on your plan, you’ll have the option to choose which version of the files or folders you want to bring back.
Dropbox Backup stores your files separate from your shared files, so you won’t have to worry about overwriting your emergency backups.

What Backup customers are saying
“Dropbox Backup calms my anxiety a bit. I've been using my work computer for a year now, but since it is from 2012 I know there's a possibility that it will freeze, fail, or die soon. But everything is backed up. That's a huge relief.”
