Sharepoint 2010 - 7 Day Backup script

Hi,
I found this post very handy and updated for myself:

Just schedule this batch file to work in every day, so you ll have a backup process which keeps your backups up to 7 days. It automatically deletes the file after 7th day.


You can also create a email job and send an email with the attachment of the spbackup.txt file.
