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)

Yes, and it works very well. A friend of mine is using it on his Surface Go backing up to the local system (with high frequency for case of editing/deleting files accidentially) and to his cloud storage simultaneously (with daily frequency for case of hardware loss).
