- New utility program TbBackup to save and restore Thunderbird data

Requirements for VSS:
- The program must be started as administrator. It is not sufficient to be logged on with an account having administrative rights. Even in this case the program must be started using the option Run as adminstrator. This is being caused by the protection of the Windows user acces control.
- The local drive from which files shall be backed up is formatted in NTSF.
- All directories to be backed up in one task are located on the same drive.
- The operating system is Windows 7 or newer.
- The installed version of Personal Backup must fit to the system (i.e. the 32 bit version on 32 bit system or the 64 bit version on 64 bit systems)
- Backup of single files optionally as zip files (also on FTP)
- Exceptions for file types not be compressed also for zip files
- Security copies optional into separate directory and option to automatically deletion if a specific age is reached
- Optional locking the computer before backup is started on logoff/shutdown
- Automatic deletion of older log files
- Updated to OpenSSL v1.0.2c
- Many bug-fixes and enhancements
- Languages: German, English, French, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Hungarian and Russian
- Note: Since version 5.7 the program runs no longer under Windows 2000. Users having installed this obsolete operating system must change to version 5.6.8
