I'm trying to make a backup of my SD card for my DS708.  I put it in the card reader on my computer but when I attempt to copy the files to a folder on my laptop the file explorer windows calculate for a moment and then just close.  I tried another computer (both Win 7) and I'm having similar problems.  The folders won't copy over.

I do get a pop up message in Windows when I insert the card that wants me to "scan and fix" the card.  Is this safe to do?  My subscription is expired so I don't want to screw up the card but I'd like to have a backup card.

Thanks, 

  I managed to get a copy of the card using TeraCopy.  Unfortunately, it skipped quite a few files and I've noticed that some (fortunately more obscure) makes don't work.  When attempting to copy some files TeraCopy reported "Cyclic Redundancy Error" which is usually not a good thing.  I haven't yet done the scan and fix to see if it resolves it.  Since I've got two copies of the original card now (less some corrupted files) I figured I'd just leave it alone and hopefully not make anything worse on the original card. 

Thanks for the 7zip idea.  I have that already so I'll see if 7zip will zip the entire thing.  My guess is it will also error.  I worry that the scan and fix will also error and cause more problems than I already have with the card. 

I picked up the complete scanner with case and all accessories on Craigslist for only $225 (it's legit and the previous owner had Autel transfer the serial number over to my Autel ID) .  It worked fine on my GM pickup when I tested it before buying but I didn't remove the card and put it in a laptop before buying.   I'm obviously not in it very much but I still don't want to pay the outrageous price for an update.  Still amazes me that an update for these can cost nearly as much as a new scanner.  $3-400 seems reasonable to me for an update.  $600 on an update for a scanner that can be bought new for around $850?  Ouch.
