Carbon back up drivers

I did but I'm having issues understanding where the drivers go. I watched the YouTube video that they have, but it didn't resolve anything.

b.1) Power off your Nexus device
b.2) Connect Your Nexus with Computer using USB cable.
b.3) Boot into fastboot mode by holding down both Volume Up and Power buttons together.

b.4) Open Device Manager(Control panel-->Device manager) and you might see some thing like this

Right Click and click "Update device Software"
Click "Browse your Computer for driver Software"
Click "Let me Pick from a list of device drivers on my Computer"
Click Next, for the device list shown.
Click "Have a Disk" button
Go to "[path where you extracted the files]\usb_driver"
select "android_winusb" and click OK
Select "Android ADB Interface" and click Next. It will give you a warning. click OK and Install.

Done Deal.

I found out that Carbon charges for their Premium if you want to use Drive or DropBox for storage. You have to use your N4's USB storage which is the only free option! What a scam..

Why is that a scam? It is a good app, and the developer clearly states that restriction in the app description. And in all honesty, I'm happy to support one of the better developers in the entire google ecosystem.

Come on.....using the USB storage?

Fine for the vast majority of users I would guess.

For those who don't want to pay and want the backup off device, nothing stopping you from uploading it to cloud storage manually or transferring to a computer via USB. You pay for the convenience of having an upload to cloud storage done automatically.

Hardly a scam.
