When you have a Windows System just use OndeDrive. Not the syncing (because that is NOT a backup) but a dedicated folder where you copy stuff you want backedup.

OneDrive syncing can not and should not be used as backup.

You can shut down your PC during syncing, it will pick up where it left if next time.

I Drive is another good one. It backs up at a assigned time everyday or however often you want it to. We used it at work when I was still a working stiff.
