When backing up, the program will utilize the 7Zip software to compact the data and verify the contents (if specified from the Bootless Star program). This program will only store new archives varying by dates and will not manage any archive files. It is possible to unpack the archive files later on, however the unpack data will only be stored in \restore\, a local directory within the DeLorean program. This directory the user can determine what to do with the data and do as they please and what they will.
