How to BackUp from Android to Desktop using ADB via a Context Menu

Pre-Req's:

install sdk, make sure you know how to run adb from cmd prompt.
Run cmd  as Admin:

1. Figure out paths of your internal/external cards

  adb shell ls $EXTERNAL_STORAGE
  adb shell ls $SECONDARY_STORAGE

 2. Test commands to work with external/internal

  cd C:\Work\Tools\Misc\Android\sdk\platform-tools 
// INTERNAL
  adb pull /sdcard/Backups/ C:\Temp\Phone\Media\20180216\Backups
  // EXT SD CARD
  adb pull /storage/D02B-5AB9/backups/ C:\Temp\Phone\Media\20180216\Backups

  3. Create a bat file to backup all folders using those commands

   See Synch.Phone.BackUp.bat below
   Save to C:\temp (or ur own dir)
   Run bat file like so: Synch.Phone.Backup C:\Temp\Phone\20180216

  
  4. Add Reg file so we have a context menu

  

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
 
  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Synch03_PUSHPhoneHere]
  @="Execute Synch03_PUSHPhoneHere"
 
  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Synch03_PUSHPhoneHere\command]
  @="\"C:\\Temp\\Synch.Phone.BackUp.bat\" \"%1\""
  

Bat File    See Synch.Phone.BackUp.bat
