Folder Snapshot Utility is a tool designed for creating rapid backup copies, or 'snapshots', of files and folders on Mac systems. It addresses the need for quick and space-efficient backups by producing snapshots much faster than traditional backup methods, with claims of being approximately 1200 times faster and using almost no additional disk space. This efficiency allows users to maintain multiple versions of their files, making it possible to roll back to previous states when needed, serving as a basic form of version control.
The utility offers straightforward operation through drag-and-drop functionality onto its dock icon, as well as integration with Finder via a right-click context menu to initiate a snapshot. Users can add comments to snapshots at the time of creation, which can help in identifying or recalling the purpose of each backup when restoring. Snapshots can be stored in locations of the user's choosing, including external disks, and there is no requirement for APFS disk formatting, making it suitable for use with older Macs and a variety of external storage devices.
