I have an external hard disk I use for regular (manual) backup of my files.
How do I copy my files automatically to my hard disk?
Is there a built in way to do this through windows or do I have to use an third party program?

2Have you looked at the File History feature in Windows 8? howtogeek.com/74623/…– David MarshallSep 1, 2013 at 13:57

BTW How is my question not legitimate? Why did someone downvote this question?– hitautodestructSep 2, 2013 at 13:46

For anyone hitting this up here's my solution:
As @DavidMarshall pointed out the File History feature in Windows 8 is a great tool to let you backup your stuff and get revisions of them.
He also added a link to a nice tutorial explaining how to enable the File History feature.
Another solution I came up with while googling was FreeFileSync an open source freeware solution. It has the ability to save the job or schedule it to run automatically.
