Any recommendations for free software backup programs that work on Windows? (beehaw.org)

Anyone know of any user friendly, FOSS, backup programs that work on Windows? If they were cross-platform that would be a bonus. Asking for a friend (no really, a family member)

Not free as in foss. But free as in beer.

You can use xpenology or just a synology disk station with active backup for business. It does quite well with windows and just runs in the background.

Before using that I use urbackup ,which is FOSS. It also worked quite well.
