Add Appdata folder on Windows and an option for Dropbox Backup
Hi Support,
Can you please add the feature to backup folders from the Appdata folder?
That will be extremely helpful for backing up important settings.
Kind regards,
Richie

Since the AppData directories are the Microsoft-recommend location for local configuration data for desktop applications, I'm very surprised selecting these directories for backup isn't already an option.
These settings are exactly the sort of files you'd want to just click a button to restore on a new installation (or if you accidentally make mistakes in them).

This is super important for me, as there are lots of settings in AppData that would be upsetting to lose if I wanted to restore a backup.

The Option to backup Folders like AppData/Roaming or AppData/Local could save some (for me and probably others to) important Informations
