A Minimal Restic GUI

Restica

A Minimal Restic GUI.

Usage

Before using Restica, be sure to either include a password.txt file with the folder you wish to backup, or include it in the command box when you run a command. By default, the "Initialise", "Backup" and "Restore" buttons assume you are using the included password.txt file.

Once you have supplied your password via the password.txt file, you can start the program and use the "Initialise" button.

Restica has three main functions.

The "Backup" button simply backs up the folder given to it in the command box; supply any folder and Restica will back up that folder to the chosen backup location.

The "Restore" button simply restores the last backup to the folder given to it in the command box.

The "Run" button allows you to run any other Restic commands that are available, using the command box.

Installation

Ensure that Restic is available in your PATH directory.

Simply download the .zip file for your operating system from the latest release page and unzip the program to a folder of your choice.
