Backup from 'User' ok?

[koolpc]

If i backup everything from C: 'User' this will save everything related to that user including emails, docs, pics etc etc?

Its not for me but a friend. He has files everywhere! Desktop, documents, emails (Windows Mail) music, pictures. All over the place but contained under 'User'

I did a backup for him using Synctoy and backed up the 'User' account to an external Hard Drive. Took blooming ages!!

Thing is, he is not very computer literate and to select certain folders to backup would be an almighty pain as he would be calling me all the time.

The way i have done it now, after showing him the clicks needed to run Synctoy, should be the easiest way?
