Arq for Windows Version 6.0.221
Major Release Arq 6:
- More power, more security, more storage savings.

Perfect backups:
- Arq uses Windows Volume Shadow Copy Service to create perfectly consistent backups of your files every time.
- If you're modifying your files as they're being backed up, it won't affect the backups.

More power:
- can run multiple backup jobs in parallel
- scans and uploads files in parallel for faster throughput
- only scans changed files/directories after the initial backup (uses filesystem events to detect changes on macOS and Windows)
- new data format which eliminates the need for reading metadata before browsing/downloading from backups.
- you can limit the scheduled backups to certain days of the week
- you can limit transfer rate to certain times of the day at certain days of the week
- powerful new rules for selecting which files and folders are included and excluded from backup
- time-based retention rules in addition to budget-based rules
- optionally keep deleted files in subsequent backups for easy locating of deleted files
- alerts when no backups have occurred for days

More secure:
- Set a password on Arq 6 to prevent others from opening Arq and deleting backups.
- Uses SHA256 for checksums instead of SHA1.

More storage savings:
- Arq 6 can back up to AWS Glacier Deep Archive. Store your backups there for $0.99/TB per month.
- Arq 6 can back up to Google Cloud Archive. Store your backups there for $1.230/TB per month with instant access to backups..

New Arq Premium subscription option:
- All the features of Arq 6 plus:
-> 1 TB storage included
-> simpler configuration
-> secure web access to your backups
-> $5.99/month (extra storage billed at $.00599/GB per month)

Even more features:
- All-new, modern user interface
- Disk device tracking instead of path-based — multiple external drives with the same name are treated as separate
- Faster object cleanup
- Faster validation
- Faster search
- Destination-agnostic, portable data format that's open and documented
- Progress bars showing percent complete
- Wake for backup
- More informative SMTP test results — full SMTP connection log when an error occurs
- Proper connection pooling for SMB and SFTP destinations with a configurable number of maximum threads — useful for SFTP storage locations that limit the number of simultaneous connections
- Optionally start a backup as soon as a volume is connected to the computer
