I'm looking not just for a backup program but also one that keeps files that are deleted in either the recycle bin or something that I can tell it to keep x number of versions of. I currently have a working backup program for disaster recovery but I'm also in need now of a program that is more in restoration of an incorrectly modified program. What I want is that when my backups occur (currently once a week), it'll keep the deleted files in my recycle bin so that if I find that a program I recently modified comes out incorrectly and I don't find out for a few days, I can go back a few versions and recover it. I only empty my recycle bin about once a month or so. Another option that I'll consider is a program that I tell it to store deleted files in a specific folder and then after the files reach a month or two old, to automatically purge them??

If i understood right, your want to backup the recycle bin? True Image makes backups of the folders you want.

Why don't you like the recycle bin? Or you want the folder that keeps only files you want, but not all the deleted files?

After doing some research, I want a backup program that either does versioned backups or a program that will send the deleted files that are old to the recycle bin just in case I need them later. My backup program right now backups up changed files but will NOT put the deleted files in the recycle bin because I'm backing up across my network to a network pc. I just want to be able to restore a file a week, month later if I need to? Hopefully this makes sense?

I don't know any programs, wich send deleted files to the recycle bin. What a backup program do you use now? The program wich i use (True Image) makes different types of backups: the full, incremental and differential backups. And I make the full backup once a month and an incremental every week. Even if i delete a file, i can restore it if i need it later. I think in this case you don't need a program for sending files to the recycle bin, coz all of them stores in the backup archives.
