RoboForm's Backup tool is useful if you wish to have a manual backup made of your RoboForm data.
The number of backups is limited to seven, and backups are performed in the following time intervals: today, yesterday, 3 days, 1 week, 1 month, 4 months, and older. Once the seven backup max has been reached, the oldest backup is automatically removed to make room for the newest incoming backup.
